Hello, I am currently looking to buy a 996 engine to put into a boxster. Does anyone have an idea of how much the new crate engines cost and advise on purchasing a remanned engine?? Thanks for your help! Zach

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.

You can't buy a remanned engine without a core exchange. You need to buy a new one. A remanned one cost was about $7000 - $8000 with exchange. I don't know the current price.

There were some postings here or perhaps another board RE 3.4 Boxster conversions. may have been on PPBB. Someone sells a turn key package, not installed, in 10 or 11k range as I recall.

You can buy a remanufactured 996 engine without a core. Its about 2500 extra. Should be between $9 and 10K. Good luck.
