I just got a Boxster, and while the engine in it is amazing, this would be a hell of a swap (not at all easy, perhaps next to impossible, but the idea of a 600hp engine that actually fits in the Boxster... whoa).
Edit: I knew their cars were expensive, but it seems Koenigsegg cars start around 2mm and up to to 10mm? I'm gonna guess that there's zero chance of just buying an engine for $10k and throwing it in another car like an LS swap

- leetcrew 7y agoyou would have to upgrade a lot of other parts in a boxster for it to be able to handle 600hp.
- djrogers 7y agoNot really - the Boxster Spyder and Cayman GT4 variants are already in the 400s, and use transmissions capable of much much more than that (as seen in other Porsche vehicles).
