From what I've read, Pierberg makes the Porsche branded water pumps, so they're the same pumps. Why spend more money just for the Porsche stamp?

I used a Pierberg when I changed mine, and I couldn't find any difference whatsoever between the original pump and the Pierberg.

Likewise. Pierberg.

If it's connected to the engine... OEM only.
