Hello!

I'm looking to buy an engine from a track wreck. How much is a Twin Turbo engine worth? The car spun and hit the rail on all 4 corners. Airbags still intact, so I assume chassis is still good? Rebuildable? :-)

Anyway, more keen to put the engine into a 996. I heard it's being done? Would like to know a ballpark sum.

hmmmmm...well putting it in a 996 is expensive. Not sure what you are getting the engine for, but you would be better off finding another tt to put it into...

 

It would cost you a fortune in labor.. Not only would you need the engine wiring harness but you would need the four other car harnesses. Sell your NA car and buy a 996TT the prices have fallen to become very obtainable.

What about the gearbox? The NA ring and pinion wouldn't last a month. It would be easier using your body parts >fenders roof, doors and rebuilding the turbo. Easier doesn't mean cheaper.

 

Where would you put the intercoolers?

 

Intercoolers can be mounted like the 996 TT but with more slant or 993-style in the decklid.

Just curious, why did you convert yours to RWD?
