  1. First of all thank you for the input. Now, where do I look for the engine code? HB
  2. Got over the slipped sleeve issue of my 986 the hard way. Unfortunately, I am being "offered" a low mileage Aug 2006 base 987.What is the risk of an intermediate shaft failure? I would hate to go out of the proverbial frying pan... Best HB
  3. The 2,5 I was considering (and the only one I found until now...) reads 130.000 Km, too much IMHO. 2,7s seem somewhat more abundant. Is a 2,5-2,7 swap feasible? Would anyone be so kind as to elaborate on the subject? Best regards, HB
  4. Thank you, txhookie4life I am not completely at ease, though. Both are 2,5, both manual, but my primary concern is the electronics. Should I transplant the donor's ECU or keep mine? I mean,will the 99 engine work properly with the 88 (mine) ECU? I have got two different opinions on this rather important aspect... Would you be so kind as to elaborate?
  5. Help! My 98 Boxster suffers from a slipped cylinder sleeve. Porsche has not yet answered my infuriated letter and meanwhile, I found a 99 engine in (apparently) suitable condition and I am considering a swap. Are there any compatibility issues at stake? Do I have to consider swapping the donor ECU also or will the 99 engine work with "my" ECU? Any other issues I should be aware of? I really need your help here. Best,
