Please help ! I need the ignition coil part number/ source for 2012 997.2tt
I have a 2012 997.2tt 3.8 turbo . I have been looking online for hours for the correct updated ignition coil version for my car and no one source matches the other. Every online store has a different part numbers. One say fits while another says does not fit. Most of them showing old version. So frustrating.
Also any recommendation on spark plugs and spark plugs gaps. I'm running GIAC 580HP tune.
Also is there a parts wholesaler or distributor in Los Angeles or close by. I was hoping to tackle this project this week.
here are some examples of is offered online.
old version shown on pelican parts

suncoast showing new version with their part number https://www.suncoastparts.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=P&Product_Code =SKU991G3COILS
eeuro parts
https://www.eeuroparts.com/Parts/434...l-9A160210407/
another link https://www.gaudinporscheparts.com/o...MtOGwtaDYtZ2Fz
another
https://www.fcpeuro.com/Porsche-parts/911/Ignition-Coil/?year=2012&m=67&e=3843
but then they show the updated version for only 2011
https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/por...bo-beru-509644
and this is what years and models they say they fit. 2010 and 2012 are excluded but 2011 is included. Ha?
this one looks like a great deal but is it the right stuff ?
Please help !!

If you've got a 3.8 you need the 9A1 part, so 9A1 602 104 03 according to the parts catalog on Porsche's website.
Sunset shows this part number as being superseded by an ..07 part, although I suspect it's actually the same part in itself. This is the part Pelican list, so the newest part number based on what I can tell.
https://www.sunsetporscheparts.com/o...il-9a160210407
ECS in a similar boat, as searching for the ...03 part gives an ...06 result:
https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...h/9a160210406/
GIACs recommendation is stock plugs if I remember rightly. Others recommend Denso PK20PR-P8.

Thank you. I ordered the parts but i only found spark plugs FR6NPP332 instead of FR6DPP332. are they the same ?
Also it seems that all coils for 997.2tt are now updated to the xxxxxx07 part number. So if order a 06 or which ever you wil get a 07 as of now .

Unsure if the plugs are the same, highly doubt it. Surprised you couldn't find them, did you search via Porsche part number?
https://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin...on=99917022890
Same plug used on the other Porsche turbo cars:

so according to Bosch website http://br.bosch-automotive.com/media...laerung_de.pdf
D and N are the thread length. N is longer than D so maybe that the 3.6 to 3.8 difference ... does that make sense ? where did you see the D specified for 997.2tt 3.8 engines.

Err I didn't - as per the parts catalogue that I attached above, N is for the 3.8, D for the 3.6.
Suggest going to Porsche's website and downloading the catalogue
