Please add me to the survey........Purchased my 2003 Boxster 2.7L Tiptronic with 6400 miles in 2007......the current mleage is 19600. No RMS leak or IMS failure to date - The underside of the engine/trans area is bone dry and shows no signs of previous leaks/oil seepage. Routine oil changes at 5000 mile intervals or every 12 monthe regardless of mileage.

I am seriously considering an IMS retrofit from LN engineering preemptively as others have done. I will be getting a quote from Hergesheimer Motorsports in Lake Forest, CA next week. Will let you know what I find out.
