3.6L engine in a 3.4L 996
 

I see in the Boxster Tech forums that the 2001 Boxster has most of the CAN features
implemented in preparation of the 7.8DME.

Is this also true for the 2001 996?

I have a 996 3.6L Engine looking for a home and I'm considering picking up
a 996.

There are quite a few 3.4s having issues and considering options.

thanks,

Mike

What year and how many mileage is your 996 engine? X-51?

You'll have more fun if you put it in a Boxster

:)

The X51 is 3.8 ltrs.

Not in a 996

I did an x51 from 05 into a 2000 996, you need an external fuel pressure regulator, change pins in about 20 errors, and run 4-6 from the engine bay to the dme.
You will need to rig up the a/c to work and you will lose cruise control.
You will need a 7.8 dme, but that's it really.......you also need to use the original water temp sensor.
