I have a 2004 Boxster S which had only 28,500 miles and recently suffered the dreaded IMS failure. I didn't drive it and it didn't seize up so it seemed that I might be a good candidate for simply replacing the IMS but as it turned out I needed a new engine. I replaced the motor with a used one. This leaves me with what should be a viable core if anyone is interested. In addition since the replacement engine was an 02 engine I had to also replace the DME, immobilizer, key system. I had just two weeks ago had new one put into my 04 by the Porsche dealership. So I have an almost brand new DME, immobilizer, key set with minimal use available for sale also. If interested in either piece please contact me with a reasonable offer at auto333868@hushmail. com and perhaps we can help each other out.
