Does anybody know if 996 turbo shocks/struts/springs will bolt onto a 996 C2? If so, would there be any benefit? Would it lower a c2? Thanks

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

No way the fronts could ever work. Rears could work but why would u? There are far better options, do a quick search here and you will see what lots of other folks have done.

I was thinking that it may be a way to cheaply upgrade a C2. There are several turbo parts for sale on ebay for pennies.

I think that we are all looking for that cheap upgrade. It appears that there are very few cheap upgrades for these cars. I just spent $400 for a new shift ****, seems kind of insane to spend $400 on something as minor as a shift ****.

Cheap, but definitely not right. Remember that a Turbo is 350 lbs heavier than a Carrera with a much different weight distribution due to the 4WD drivertrain. In addition, the ride height will increase over a turbo due to the lighter weight of the Carrera. If you want an inexpensive suspension upgrade, look at a ROW M030 suspension that includes matches springs, struts and sway bars that are exectly matched to your model for about $1K.
