Scavenging and aeration in the oil pan have been identified as a problem in 996/997 and Boxster models experiencing high G-forces on fast road and the race track. The oil pan spacer kit provides a simple solution. This spacer increases sump capacity by half a quart, providing more reserve to ward off starvation.

Although Porsches are extremely handy on road and track and also prove themselves extremely reliable, they are by no means bullet proof. There have been several reported cases of cars (especially those equipped with suspension upgrades and track day tyres) experiencing oil starvation and oil surge in steady state high G cornering situations.

The extension works by increasing the amount of oil in the sump (by approx. 1.5 litres), lowering the oil pick up and increasing the baffling.

Installation: For best results internal baffle passages should be modified.

Billet Aluminum Hard-Anodized Magnetic Drain Plug & Washer for Porsche 911, Boxster, and Cayman Models

billet aluminum hard-anodized magnetic drain plug is CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and has a large 3/8” rare-earth magnet to reduce iron (Fe) levels in oil, which is a primary source for wear in your engine, with up to 14 lbs. of pull.

The other main reason to use a magnetic drain plug, especially in the M96 engine, is because of the potential for IMS (intermediate shaft) failures. The ferrous foreign object debris generated by a failing IMS bearing will be caught by the magnet, allowing for earlier detection of critical engine problems before they happen.

Due to customer feedback, we are proud to offer a new version, redesigned for 2012, which due to its recessed magnet, is much easier to clean.

If you've ever changed your oil yourself, you've probably encountered a stripped drain plug or had to fight with getting one out. What makes this drain plug different from the rest is its hard anodized surface and its over-sized 10mm internal hex. It is designed to last for years, unlike the original drain plug’s hex which is easily stripped and almost needs to be replaced after every use.

Drain plug uses M18x1.5mm thread pitch and replaces Porsche part no 900 219 009 30.

Uses O.E. sealing ring Porsche part number 900 123 106 30 (two rings are included with retail purchase only). Torque to 37 ft/lb (50 Nm). Replace sealing ring every time you re-install the drain plug.

*Does not fit Turbo, GT2, or GT3 models nor does our magnetic drain plug fit any aircooled models. It is only designed for MY97-08 vehicles using M96/M97 engines.

Billet aluminum IMS to crankshaft chain guide / tensioner, replacement for Porsche part no. 99610516554 or 99610516555, to help prevent catastrophic engine failures like this. Shown in the image a comparison of our billet tensioner paddle compared to the cast factory tensioner. Billet construction provides a significantly stronger and more durable product while utilizing OE Porsche wear pad and pressure pin (both of which are included as shown).

Update: We've found the factory plastic pressure pin to not be strong enough, so we've made a billet steel pressure pin against which the chain tensioner actuates to tension the crankshaft to IMS drive chain. This is a return to a style of pressure pin found in very early examples of the M96 engine.

If you choose not to upgrade to this item when your engine is apart, please at least purchase a new one from Porsche rather than re-using the old one, even if it looks fine! We recommend our billet tensioner paddle where vehicle will see track use.

If you track your car, it's a pretty cheap item to not have to loose sleep over. Yes, we offer a heat treated, shot-peened chromoly oil pump hex drive to replace the inferior, non-heat treated mild-steel factory pump drive on the M96 and M97 engine, which has known to fail, shearing in two, resulting in a catastrophic loss of oil pressure. Don't let this happen to you! (shown in the image)

The oil pump drive is located off the intermediate shaft on the opposite side that hold the ball bearing and mates to the oil pump console, located on the front of the engine. This part should not be changed with the engine in the car, as the oil pump console must be removed to R&R the oil pump drive, which is a task best suited when the engine is removed from the car.

Fits:
Porsche 987 Boxster / Boxster S 2005-08
Porsche 987C Cayman / Cayman S 2006-08
Porsche 996 C2 / C4 / C4S 1998-05

We applaud Porsche's use of a canister to reduce waste and be environmentally conscious, but due to feedback from many of the shops and technicians we serve, we now offers our full-flow spin-on oil filter adapter, allowing for use of a conventional spin-on oil filter, rather than requiring the use of expensive and inferior replacement cartridge-style filters.

This makes changing your oil a much simpler task. No longer do you have to handle changing out the cartridge, worry about contamination of the oil filter housing, depositing lint or transfer from whatever rag or paper is used to wipe out the housing, or thinking you have cross threaded the cheap plastic filter housing since they don't fit all that well. (a complaint we hear often!) Our spin-on oil filter adapter makes oil changes easy again!
The Spin-On Oil filter adapter also helps improve the longevity of your engine by providing full flow filtration, which means 100% of the oil gets filtered without having oil bypass the filter (as the factory filter housing allows for). Our design eliminates the factory bypass for the filter (engine still has a pressure relief in the oil pump to prevent over pressurization).
We've chosen a family of filters used on late-model Corvettes, easily found at many local auto parts stores for a fraction the price of the original filter, designed for full-flow application without a bypass valve. Coupled with more frequent oil changes every 6 months or 5,000 as recommended, there should be no fear that a bypass is required. Our spin-on filter adapter has been race proven not to cause oil starvation, even in the most demanding applications. If you were to have a failure where the filter did fill up with debris leading to starvation, if you had a bypass that same debris would have caused further damage to the engine, still requiring an overhaul. We've seen engine failures where the lack of a bypass actually limited damage to the rest of the engine!

Although inspecting the filter for debris requires a special tool to cut open the steel bodied filters over the ease of inspecting the factory filter inserts, when paired with our magnetic drain plug, you can actually get a better indicator of abnormal wear from the ferrous material collected by the magnet on our drain plug.


Filter adapter has machined in hex, allowing easy installation using a 26mm socket and ratchet (not included).

Fits 986/987 as well as 996/997 models and replaces Porsche part numbers 996 107 020 53 (54, 55). For MY97-08 vehicles with M96 or M97 engine designation. Does not fit GT2, GT3, or Turbo models or any aircooled models. Design only for MY97-08 vehicles with an M96/M97 engine.

Underdrive Pulley for Porsche 996/997/Boxster 986

Brand: RSS

The RSS Lightweight Underdrive Pulley is made from 6061-T6 aluminum. Offers improved HP & TQ by reducing drag from the power steering pump, A/C, water pump and alternator.

The RSS lightweight underdriven crank pulley is designed for Porsche owners who are looking for a easy bolt-on 7-10 rear wheel horsepower. The CNC machined pulley fits all Porsche 987.1 Boxster and Cayman cars. The idea of the underdrive pulley is that it will reduce demand that the stock pulley puts on the power steering pump at high engine revs. Not only will this preserve the longevity of the pump, it will also improve performance, throttle response, and give the track racer a car to be confident in. Since the pulley is lighter then stock, the rotational weight reduces load on the engine slightly. This pulley kit includes the removal and install tool in addition to a new bolt for easy install. With the inclusion of these tools, you can switch back to the stock pulley if needed for warranty purposes. This is an absolute must for track drivers!

Drive Belt for Under Drive Pully cars WITH Aircon. Porsche 996/ Boxster 986/997

What size serpentine belt to run when using an under drive pulley?

The stock serpentine belt length for a 986 Porsche Boxster or Porsche 996 with air conditioning is 2115mm Porsche part # 996 102 151 64. If you remove the air conditioning but keep the stock drive pulley you will need a new serpentine belt that is 1930mm in length. If you then decide to add an underdrive pulley in the range of 4.25 to 5 inches in diameter you will need a belt 1905mm in length. For those of you who would like to add an under drive pulley with air conditioning, the proper length is 2101mm.

So in review:
Stock pulley w/ air conditioning - 2115mm
Under drive pulley w/ air conditioning - 2100mm
