"Upgraded to Carrera chain tensioners and airbox pop-off valve..."

Every ad for a decent SC or G-Series 911 says that. Someday every ad for an M96 car will say something similar about IMSB upgrade. It doesn't matter if only .00001% of cars actually need the upgrade, or 99.998%; perception is everything, and perception is that the IMSB is a ticking bomb. The upgrade will eventually be seen as an absolute necessity if you hope to get anything close to full value for your car.

But it will be awhile before that is the case.
