Just for frame of reference I found my used 3.2 from OK foreign on Ebay. With shipping it was just under $5000. The engine came very complete, but they do require a core. I think that you would spend well over $3000 on the overhaul along with the engine core you would be close to the cost of a used engine. Mine had 60K miles on it and so far, knock on wood, it has been great. I would love to get the flat 6 innovations upgrades 286hp to the wheels. :rolleyes:

3.2 S engine swap into non S 2.5, need help
gmanz replied to Rixter's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Rixter, I have been following your efforts closely as I am performing the same swap in my 97. I have the engine in now and it's running, but I'm using the 2.5 throttle body, I realize the 996 non egas is better. What was your source for the throttle body? The car actually does very well like it is my rear end dyno says that it's maybe a bit better than the 2.5 with a bit of hesitation through the early RPM band. I'm also running the original DME as my computer is the early one that cannot be switched to 996. Did you have this problem? If so where did you find your DME replacement? Thanks for the info.
