I don't know how many "The Solution" bearings have been installed but I also haven't seen any failure reports on the 10 Porsche forums I frequent.

When reading postings about IMS bearing replacement kits, you must understand that there are several groups that seem to have great animosity toward one supplier or another. Makes the political ads seem tame by comparison.

If I were selecting a bearing kit for replacement, I'd think about how I'd use the car, how much else I was investing in preventative maintenance, what other potential problem areas the same amount of money might fix, what the experience of the installer was with a specific product and even why I wasn't buying a completely rebuilt engine.

As an example, why am I focusing on the IMS as opposed to the suspension, a complete heads rebuild, or whatever?

How much to spend on PM is such a subjective choice.
