Other than the specialist Stola cars?

Just wondering if anybody here had any links to an aftermarket turbo conversion for the Boxster or Boxster S?

Some of the german tuners do them. I found one on mobile.de a while ago.

Basically, the consensus seems to be that the Boxster chassis struggles to hang together with more than 350bhp; a GT3 engined one my tech put together 'started to tear itself apart'. I think Ruf do some major chassis mods to their 3400S and Stola must do the same kind of stuff to their turbo Boxster.

It seems to be an expensive, frivolous (won't get conversion costs back at resale) and fairly ill advised road to go down.

If you really want a fast Boxster, strip one out with a normally aspirated 996 engine in it. Maybe speak to Colin at 9mracing.co.uk, he wants to do a Boxster RS
