Notes from Dr. Borkosky

This would probably be a good time to replace the seals that mate the aluminum intake manifold to the engine case. Remove the plug from one side of the engine, and then swap places with the oil pressure sending unit as shown. The Boxster engine and the Carrera engine are almost exact the same: the Carrera is basically just a larger displacement version of the Boxster engine. The fit is tight because the 996 manifold sits higher than the stock Boxster manifold. This helps with routing and the reassembly process. The pressure line that supplies the Boxster connects to the fuel rails at the rear right side of the engine. The electronics are all compatible but you will have to drop the engine by ~1" to clear the 996 intake. * NOTE: PRICES ARE AS OF June 2020. This allowed us to use the PST-2 (or Durametric) tool to adjust the resistor value so that the fuel trim levels were properly set. Keep in mind that this is only an overview, and some additional research may be needed when installing an engine into your particular chassis. Don't buy a 1997 if you are definitely planning on doing an upgrade as you might get stuck with one of these non-programmable DMEs. Shown here is the 996 starter / alternator harness (yellow) and relocated electrical junction box (green). The first step I took was to completely remove the fuel rails from the 996 engine.

The 2002 Boxster is somewhat unique in that it has an older-style 7.2 DME combined with the 2002 CAN BUS system that integrates various electronic systems on the car. If I recall correctly, the Subaru starter mounts to the transmission and the Porsche starter mounts to the engine, so when you mate a Subaru engine to a Porsche transaxle, there's no place for the starter to go. Although this did work fine, there's probably a better solution out there (like a right-angle quick-connect that fits into the 8mm fuel hose), but I wasn't able to find it in time for this project. When the engine is installed in the car, connect this hose to the air pump located on the right side of the Boxster engine compartment. Use some high-quality electrical tape to rewrap the wires that are exposed (inset photo). I recommend that you use the starter harness from the 996 which is longer than the Boxster harness. See The Official Book Website for more details. 2009 – 2012 987.2 base 2.9L cars require EFI That the engine could bolt up to the grand, it really hits the easy. Here's a photo of me test-fitting the custom-made air intake in the engine compartment. In addition, for 2020 The green arrow shows the connector to the crossover pipe, the yellow arrow shows the connector to the air-oil separator unit. (2009 - 2012), Porsche 911 type 991.1 (2012 - 2016) and Porsche Good luck with whatever you decide and keep us posted!

The 2003 and later Boxster and Cayman cars can accept any 996/997 3.6 Carrera engine, and any Boxster or Cayman engine from 2003 and later.

This 911 V8 Swap Is A Deathwish On Wheels. 2007 996, 2008 Carrera, 2008 997, Porsche Boxster 986/987 Technical Articles, Boxster Engine Swap / Carrera Engine Conversion Project, Page last updated: Fri 10/23/2020 09:17:39 AM, Porsche 987 Boxster S Porsche Design 2 (2009), Pelican Technical Article: Installing Performance DME Map Software, Pelican Technical Article: 996 Gauge Cluster Upgrade, Pelican Technical Article: Replacing Motor Mounts, Pelican Technical Article: Installing a Performance Exhaust System, Pelican Technical Article: Performance Suspension / Lowering / PSS10 Installation, Pelican Technical Article: Replacing Transmission Mounts, Pelican Technical Article: Troubleshooting Vacuum Leaks, Pelican Technical Article: Coolant Replacement / Coolant Flush, Pelican Technical Article: Fuel Pump Replacement. This is so the throttle body will face the rear of the car. your Boxster, Cayman or 911 we currently offer engine conversions for all The Carrera 996 engine uses a combination unit that senses pressure and also includes a low-pressure switch as well. This photo shows the Carrera 996 wire harness that is no longer used. - PRICING DOES VARY Disconnect the coolant hose from the connection on the front of the engine (yellow arrow). Install and point them downwards as shown to ease installation (red arrow).

As a result, you can install any 1997-08 Boxster or 996 Carrera motor into these cars without too much difficulty. Although I didn't have a difficult time attaching it with the engine installed in the car, it probably would be easier to bolt this to the starter before engine installation. Any problems with the 3.4 that I should look out for? Working closely with Boxster conversion guru Todd Holyoak, I've managed to compile the following list of compatible engine / chassis combinations. The inset photo shows the engine compartment temperature sensor, which should be mounted on the manifold that is located on the right side of the engine compartment (when you flip around the 996 manifold, it should be on the correct side). You can swap in any replacement engine of the same displacement from 2003-08 without having to remap the DME. Don't forget to attach the very important ground points for the harness (inset photo, lower left). They have performance upgraded engines and, if I recall correctly, can rebuild your 2.5 into a 2.7 or 2.9 performance motor with significant increase in hp. Figuring out where to plug in all of the little plastic vacuum hoses took quite a long time for me, so I decided to create this vacuum plug chart to assist during the reassembly process. Some massaging of the A/C lines may be necessary to make them fit around the particular bosses and mounting points of some of the engines. While this would seem like the obvious answer, if it was easy, the swap would have been perfected by now. wouldn't last 200 miles. These two photos show how I put together the air intake for the new engine. In addition, you need to modify the Boxster engine wire harness, as the camshaft position sensors are located on the opposite ends of the engine than on the 5-chain early motors. If you are using an electronic throttle body (2000 and later Boxsters), you won't be using the air/oil separator hose that comes with the 996 engine, so disconnect it from the intake crossover tube as shown in the inset photo (green arrow).
