I agree 100% with all of the above comments. This mechanic obviously has very little experience with the M96, because no knowledgeable Porsche mechanic would recommend a metal impeller.

As stated above Pierburg is the same as Porsche OEM. You can save a few bucks by not buying the Pierburg pump in a Porsche box, but you don't want to skimp on the water pump.
