Too many times Porsche used old on new parts just because...or the car has a replacement engine...so while we can generalize the only way to be absolutely positively sure is by examination.

The IMS replacement is normally done at clutch replace time along with the RMS (Rear Main Seal) update. So in round numbers for a stick shift car, $2k. For a 3rd gen IMS design such as an '07 surely is...the same parts and labor would be around $4.5k. But depends on what the labor rate is and how you buy the parts. And there are those who do it all themselves or with help from a friend.
