The upgrade makes sense on a low-mileage, nearly new car, which is both still highly valuable and most at risk of IMS failure from what I've read. Even LN and Raby will tell you that probably 95% (or more) of IMS's are good and tend to stay good. Your car obviously had a good IMS or it wouldn't have lasted 130,000 miles. And why would you invest $3K in a car with 130,000 miles anyway? It's not like the new IMS would give you new rings and valves ...
