Hello All, I am doing some upgrades to my '99 996, one of the first is the exhaust, trying to decide between APR Performance: APR Porsche® 996 Carrera C2 3.4 Performance Exhaust System And Fab Speed: https://www.fabspeed.com/996_GT3.html I would do the ECU upgrade at the same time from the same vendor; I am not set on either one if there is a better option for a street car. Have to drop the engine, this winter to correct the IMS issue famous in '99. Any other mild tweaks to consider for a 60,000 mile 3.4L? Erik Repost from 911 Tech form, sorry for confusion

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.
