Question on Boxster 911 Engine Swap

I have a 2001 porsche boxster 986 convertible 2.7 liter and I would like to swap to a 3.6L motor I have quite a few questions

1. being can I use my old clutch and flywheel.

2. can I use my old transmission.

3. can I use my old wiring harness and ECU.

4. what modifications would I need to make to the air intake to make it fit. I heard that was a issue

5. what additional parts would I need to make the swap and is it similar to the 3.4 install above ?

6. what can I do about the exhaust as I heard that can be a issue also.

7. will it bolt up to my original motor mounts?

8. can I purchase these parts from you guys and maybe the motor also ?

9. what upgrades can I do before the install to increase the horsepower and do you guys sell these parts?

10 do I need suspension upgrades do you guys sell these parts.

Thank You very much for your time and please be as specific as possible as I was thinking of doing my body but am now considering dumping the money into this area *as speed is my life*.

Most of your questions can be answered on the forum. Our members that have performed the swap can be a great help.

The transmission parts art not compatible.

Wiring harness and other parts will have to be replaced.

You will need to swap most parts from the S engine over to your vehicle

Been there, done that - don't try to do it yourself. There are plenty of shops/individuals around the country with experience doing this - they know the right pieces, the right way to do it, and the right way to program the engine (trust me, this is a big one).
