My short story. Needed a clutch so I thought I would add the LN Eng kit. But it's '99 so there is no LN kit. So I went with the Tuners DOF which has a dual row kit. But my '99 car turned out to have an '05 engine. So now, for better or for worse, I have a Tuners on my single row. If it keeps working I will keep quiet about it.

 

Hmm... Well that's interesting.
I have a '99 and there is an LN kit with an upgraded bearing (dual row), just the IMS Solution isn't available for dual row cars.
Either way I wish you the best!

 

We offer the dual row bearing ('97-'99) retrofit kit here:
LN Engineering IMS Bearing Retrofit Kit

Available now.

Mark/Pelican Parts

 

Official Porsche numbers for failed IMS, as quoted in the Harris papers found at the US IMS Settlement:
Double row IMS (aka 1998/99, and post 2005 models) "far less than 1%".
Single row IMS between 4 and 10%.

Far less than 1% may well be in the 1/200-1/400 area, or less.

These numbers should be taken in consideration before you panic. Id say, If you own a 1999 car, wait for the clutch. A 2003 car: Just do it.

Kind Regards

 

Excellent info...
