This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Just looking for possible option to get the 996 on the road while I finish fixing the original engine. Maybe if I can find a real cheap 2.5, I might just put in in there as a stopgap. Also it's a slow day at work.

POST 9Original post

How plug-n-play is the Boxster to 996 swap? Say, same year for both?

POST 10Original post

In a 1999 Boxster versus 996 outside of displacement then only difference I can think of is the 996 intake has a dme controlled secondary air source .

POST 11Original post

and the 996 AOS has engine coolant connections .

POST 12Original post

IMO, good luck. Keep us posted!
