not stock.
if you read the other posts the same has already been said and the same has already been answered... getting a C55 could probably be a cheaper alternative depending on your intentions with the car... its like what the owner of iforged did with his 996TT .... everyone said that getting a 997 would have been cheaper ... well, with what he was after..it actually made more sense to do what he did..

after doing all the modifications to my car prior to the engine swap, it did not make sense to me to get a c55. I did not want to go through the trouble of swapping everything out of the c320 into a c55.

I can only imagine this thing with a fully modded engine... pulleys, intakes, IC pump, Heat exchanger, TUNE ... LSD, Id do a slight widebody / fender pull in the rear to fit 285 rubber... i think its justifiable hahaha
