Hi....Non s is the same 3.6 motor as 996 c2/4s 3.6.... We have proformed quite a few of these installs....... All can be left stock but the clutch will need to be look at if you really drive it hard. Air intake is addressed in the kit. Brakes are nice to upgrade but a good set of pads will greatly help. Susppension is also nice but not needed. Here to assist, Tim

I have a TPC SC kit on my S. It has S brakes (brembo) already. I think you'd need to upgrade brakes - suspension upgrades and aerokit would be good too. Upgrade the driver with some DE or "sport driving" instructions..

I saw one at the drag strip in bakersfield last saturday, it was a 997S, supercharged by Sharkwerks, nicely done. Car was amazing.

There are quite a few guys running the EVOMS kit in the 997 forum. I have installed a lot of them, and they are a very solid kit. PM blakt out or 58spdstr, they both run the kits, and track them as well, and i am sure would give you some feedback on the kit.
