Or...the low-buck alternative is a 5.0 liter mustang engine swapped in. Saw a video of some guy absolutely RIPPING through the Santa Cruz mountains in one back a bit. My checkbook could do this. Not the twin turbo flat 8.

Both are awesome.

It's in a Cayman, you can't see the motor. (and the Cayman is easier to see the motor than the boxster)

Which 5.0?

The flat plane crank 5.0 or the 5.0 like in my 2004 RAV4 which is the proletariat version which oddly feels like a factory 2.4L Toyota motor.

You need proof? Cabby helped me install it. Here you go............

Or, the low, low buck alternative is just leave the Cayman intact. It's plenty fun enough for mere mortals on public roads. Just sayin.
