But what does LWFW mean? Left Wing ______ ______ ?

I see no reason to suggest that the EPS isn't as good a solution as any other.... and it is most CERTAINLY "good enough".
There are WAAAY too many other things that can take the motor out, for me to start worrying about something with such a statistically-low failure rate.

EDIT: And BTW, we actually agree on something!! :dance:

Maytag....
...Why must you disparage folks who have purchased parts from Jake Raby with great success and bring a political analogy into this discussion?
How does that help the collective?

Maytag can speak for himself, but the gist of his argument is that Jake Raby isn't the end-all be-all on Porsche motors. He's out to sell a product. And he has every right to do so. But there are other products as well. Don't blindly follow one guy, have an open mind.
Regarding the political analogy, I was the butt of the joke, but I found it funny and a rather good analogy and funny. So I wasn't offended in any way, so lighten up a bit.

Jake does not sell products, only complete engines.

You don't think he gets anything from pushing LN Engineering stuff? You think he worked with LN Engineering pro bono to develop the IMS Solution?
"LN Engineering and Flat 6 Innovations have secretly been working on a solution (pre-dating the introduction of the single row bearing IMS Retrofit kit) to the bearing failures experienced in model year 2000 through 2005 intermediate shafts using the single row ball-bearing, dubbed the IMS Solution."

Riiiiiggghhht...... ;-)
So he has zero interest in L/N with Charles.... and has zero interest in THE IMS SOLUTION ?
if that's true, then we're not talking about raby anyway, because we've been talking about the purveyor of that product.
And 10; piper already set ya straight, below. I don't know why you'd want to continue being offended?

Im not disparaging people for buying their products. Hell, I'VE bought some of their products.
Rather, I'm disparaging those who close their minds to any other knowledge, experience or solution. Your own post: "... use the Google..." is already condescending, and you go on to actually say that there's only one solution.
So I'll ask your question of YOU: how does that help the collective?

Easy.....
.....He asked which solution to buy. I told him which solution to buy.
I told him to "use the Google" because there is a wealth of information out there on this subject.
Simple.
