Following-on from the last build, here’s another Subaru powered build for your reading pleasure. The only difference is this time the turbocharged flat-4 isn’t sitting in the front of another Impreza, it’s in the back of a Porsche Boxster. This Boxster was bought with a blown motor, so the swap was intended from the get-go. The car is being built to be competitive on the circuit, while at the same time testing the reliability of the engine conversion for future public release.

I never thought I’d like a Boxter, but that thing is simply awesome.
Huh… saw that car in the pits last time I was at Chuckwalla. No idea that it was Subaru-powered (never heard it run).
that actually makes since to put a subaru engine into a porche and makes it slightly more badass haha
Gahhhh… Boxter…. Must…. Not…. Like
Oh well I tried, it’s definitely cool!
Sick build! Will re-post it!
Nice build, that Boxster is probably crazy on the track. One of my friends is building his 2006 STI. I know it’s not the same car but it’s a simila engine so some readers might be interested:

Is it possible to find out all information needed about parts needed and directions for a boxster transaxle to Subaru engine build.it’s very difficult to get any help
Sorry Laurie but I can’t really help. I’d try signing up to the forum that the build thread is hosted on and try to contact the owner.
