2005-2006 Porsche 987 Boxster S 3.2l Engine Long Block / M96.26

Donor Car:

2006 Porsche 987 Boxster S - 80K

Functionality:

Removed from a running and driving vehicle. Engine has been fully tested and ran prior to dismantling. During testing the engine started and idled smoothly with no major smoking upon startup. The engine revved smoothly, however there was a noticeable misfire / hesitation on decal. We were unable to fully identify the cause of this stumble during testing as the DME module had no present error codes or triggered misfires. We have compression tested the engine with good results - (Driver : 185, 170, 170 / Passenger : 170, 170, 160). We have also leakdown tested each cylinder with <5% leakage across each cylinder. We have included borescope images of each cylinder in the photos above. During testing the engine had some visible oil residue from the rear main seal. We recommend replacing this gasket prior to installation. Oil and fluids were drained with no abnormalities. Ships drained of all fluids. 

Physical Condition:

Includes the engine long block, intake manifold, throttle body, AC compressor, Power steering pump, alternator, starter, crank pulley, water pump, oil pan, oil filter housing, oil cooler, air / oil separator, coil packs, fuel rails, injectors, and wiring harness as shown. In good physical condition with no cracks or damage in the engine block. We have left the original exhaust manifolds installed, as the manifold bolts commonly break during the removal of the manifolds. One of the front camshaft plugs did come loose during removal of the engine. This plug will need to be replaced with factory part # 99610421602. Failure of this plug is typically caused by a failing Air Oil Separator system so it is recommended to replace the AOS components as well (part # 99610702601). The IMS bearing appears to be the original factory unit. Includes everything as shown in the photos. You will need to reuse some of your existing hardware and components for installation.

Fits:

2005, 2006 Porsche 987 Boxster S 3.2l

Fitment Notes:

Will only fit the 3.2l equipped S models. This was removed from a manual transmission model. This can also be used for automatic tiptronic transmission models, however you may need to transfer over some of your existing sensors and wiring for installation.

Warranty Information:

This engine comes with a 90 day warranty that begins on the day the engine is received by the buyer. The warranty covers the engine block, crankshaft, pistons, rods, bearings, oil pump, cylinder head, head gasket, camshafts, valves and lifters against any defects that prevent the engine from operating as intended from the factory or make noises consistent with damaged engine internals ( rod knock, spun bearings, etc). Every engine we list has been fully run tested, compression tested and when possible test driven to make sure it runs smoothly, makes no odd noises and does not overheat.

What is not included in the warranty is common wear and tear items such as: timing belt, water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, spark plug wires, sensors and seals. While these items were in working condition at the time of testing, their lifespan is usually shorter than the internals of the engine and are therefore not covered under warranty. If any seals or gaskets are leaking at the time the engine is being tested and removed, or any sensors broken or defective, they will be noted in the item description. No labor, diagnostic or towing costs will be covered under warranty. In the event of a warranty claim, please be prepared to supply pictures, video and/or a statement from a shop/mechanic to validate the claim. For diagnostic purposes during the process of a warranty claim, the engine must remain in the car as installed. Beginning the removal process or any disassembly of the engine prior to our approval will void the warranty. This warranty is non-transferrable. It is only applicable to the original purchaser.

Situations that will void the warranty:

Overheating of the engine. We install ‘heat indicator tabs’ on every engine prior to shipping that show when an engine has been operated at a temperature significantly higher than normal operating temperature. If these tabs show signs of overheating, the warranty will be void. If the engine in your car is being replaced due to damage from an overheating condition please locate and fix the source of the issue prior to running your new engine.

Not running fresh oil and oil filter in the engine (these engines ship drained of all fluids).

Installation of an aftermarket turbocharger/supercharger, Nitrous Oxide kit, or aftermarket tune.

Installation errors that are found to have caused the engine to run improperly.

Operation outside of normal intended road usage, such as track days, racing, drifting, etc

Disassembly of the engine besides basic preventative maintenance such as oil seals, spark plugs, cooling system, and timing belts. Removing the cylinder head, head gasket changes, replacing or modifying internal rotating components such as bearings/camshafts/crankshafts, and other major work done to engine would void warranty.

****If there are any areas of concern on an engine you received or have questions about work you will be performing on it, please inform us as soon as possible. Communication in the early stages can help clarify any warranty questions or resolve any issues ahead of time****
