Strange, P0171 and P0174 aren't typical Porsche CEL codes. What did you read them with? They are very generic codes that Porsche doesn't typically trigger. I wander if your code reader was wrong? ...

I could if you have access to a lift. They are really easy to put in and take out, just a bit of rust on the old ones that can cause some grief. I had one of my original stock headers crack and had...

Wow you used "rebuilt title", "small front end collision" and "professionally repaired" all in one sentence. Never thought I'd see that. At least the car is priced accordingly.

Use factory Beru plugs..... 2 electrodes

The engine was designed for 2 electrode type Beru plugs. Buying the 4 style is a waste of money. While the Bosch might be cheaper, I HIGHLY recommend the Beru ones. Any other plug won't be optimal.
