I think the gearbox isn't good for more than 250hp which was the limitation at the time, so you would need to start there and work out. I think the AJ-30 V6 is meant to be a good unit so I would go for forced induction around that.nuttinnew wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2024 2:42 pmOooh, interesting, what sort of spec are you thinking? I don't know if Noble turbots would fit (they probably would in an ali XJ...) but the Volvo V8 might - I'm sure I've seen one in a C30 somewhere. You'd have the same the problem again with Noble turbots, but at least a couple more cylinders and c.c..Explosive Newt wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2024 10:22 am I think the other draw is to make the car you wish they had made. For this reason I always fancied making a Jaguar X-type R.
I've oft pondered an Allroad type estate using Freelander suspension, surprised one of the yt channels hasn't done it yet (car throttle did it badly).

The mention of Panameras in the Petrol Taycan thread raises a question; the Panamera got a 3.0D, does that make it a LEGITIMATE contender for an early Boxster engine swap? Boxsderv™
