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. As a result, if you wish to install a 3.4L Carrera 996 engine, you will need a custom DME remap from a third party vendor like Softronic (see Pelican Technical Article: Installing Performance DME Map Software). The best solution for these cars is to swap in a Carrera 996/997 3.6/3.8 engine or a 2002-08 Boxster/Cayman engine. You can swap in any replacement engine of the same displacement from 2000-02 without having to remap the DME. (I.E. a 2002 Boxster 2.7L with a blown motor can accept a 2000 2.7L engine with no remapping needed).
