i'm kind of in the same boat, where's the cheapest place to get 997tt coil-packs?

 

the most consistently low online vendor prices tend to be: suncoast/ecs/pelican parts in no particular order ) and others that escape me now, but a simple search online will give you a lot of choices. try suncoast porsche and pelican parts first to see the spread.

 

Motor Mounts... Just did mine and what a giant difference in response and diminishing that 2k rpm slop.
I went with the semisolid motor mounts and was well worth it.

 

agree, they're a great and necessary mod.

 

If ur changing the serpentine belt u may as well change the pulley as well to an under drive pulley such as the one available from BBI.

 

Oem? Pelican parts does a great job of showing the same part from multiple sources as well as listing the manufacturer of the part. Most OEM parts are Bosch...Pelican lists the OEM part from Porsche...but will list the Bosch part as the oem supplier and the price can be hundreds less. Oem....oem supplier. Case in point. The Bosch mass air sensor is something like 400 whereas the oem porsche sensor (exact same part) is like 700. The Bosch part even has the Porsche 996 part number on it. Just cuz porsche boxes it, they inflate the price.

 

agree, theyre terrific and seeing the options listed and difference btw refurb vs oem or porsche branded is very helpful as well as instructive. pelican is pretty much my #1 go to spot, plus i get stuff the very next day as theyre local.

 

Gurd damn. Got the car back today after ten days driving the USS Odyssey, the car definitetly live up to the crest. Apparently there were some boost leak found. The car sounds, drives, and rides a whole lot better. Time to get a tune!! : )

 

call garth at undercover tuning and ask about the cobb access tune he has. would be great place to start modding

 

How many hours labor required for installing new motor mounts?

 

An hour and two beers

 

If it's an hour then make it at least 3 beers...lol

 

30 mins and a six pack lol

 

Hell no add 15 mins for bathroom break since you up the ante

�� I hope I'm good for awhile. I got the transmission inserts from Function First, but I need the 997 transmission mount to make the work. I should have got the turbos upgrade instead of the maintainance stuff ��
