I'd do a 3.6 VR6 before a 3.2. Hey, Porsche used the 3.6 VR6 in some vehicles so it's still all Porsche. (Actually they used the 3.2 as well, which is a bit of a dog in a Cayenne.) I think the 3.6 VR6 could be run by the 996 stock engine management with the right wiring harness.
I met a fellow who is marketing an Audi 2.9 turbo swap for 996. He had his demo car on display at a show earlier this year.

@TexSquirrel can we get some visibility here. This member has no intention (stated) of contributing to the thread.
It would certainly appear as though they are actively trying to incite confrontation. A member offers to help them, and that is the response.
Is this stuff cool with you ?

Which is weird. But whatever, good luck.

Let's keep the fighting and the engine debates out of this thread.
It would be interesting to see dyno graphs of stock and modified M96/XX engines in one place.
I think that's best for this thread unless we end up with scope creep or in-fighting.
Maybe we need a Fight Club thread so this and other threads can remain on topic.
The Off topic thread would also serve this purpose.

It’s almost clear in the OP, then clarified - any motor swapped into a non GT/turbo 996 is good as well as all motors that came stock in non turbo/gt is good. The thread is about looking at all the options and what they do - how much they do and how they do it.

I really really want to see what power levels the stock transaxle taps out at. I’ve heard 500ft/lbs ish but it’s always from someone who hasn’t had experience and is playing a game of telephone.
