Has any one here been a customer of Jason over at UFO Motorsports in Ca???
I have a 996 that just had the "intermix" issue and I am looking to have mine rebuilt and I'm just check out every option. So if you have used Jason over at UFO Motorsports for a rebuilt m96 engine I would love to hear some feedback.

 

Are there any other recomindations to get a motor rebuilt by some one else who is well known?

 

AFAIK, I think they offer a full buildup including a different IMS(I don't think it's LN's) for 7-8k+core? If you do a search, there was 1 person on here that had used them but it wasn't a full build. Contact TPC also. I know they mostly do turbo's for the 996 NA's but they do a lot of builds.
Keep us updated as when/if my motor goes, I'll most likely build it.

 

i'll contact TPC i have talked to them about a turbo kit, but know thats outa the question.... no need to force air into a bad motor...LOL

 

Talked to TPC and they told me it would be more than a reman from porsche to have them rebuild it. They typicaly deal with the GT3 motors when doing rebuilds.

 

Strasse Auto in Newport, Ca 949-645-1928 and why there down there ask them to rebuild with LN's IMS uprgade. Mine still running strong and does come with 1 yr warranty. Sorry can't recommend someone closer for you.

 

Visionmotorsports did my full rebuild. Dwain is the man. Very good pricing too.

 

If my engine goes I'm getting Jake Raby over at Flat 6 Innovations to do a full rebuild.

 

I'm going w/ UFO. After talking to a customer of theres that is here in TX I'm sure I'll be satisfied. The customer was very satisfied and only had one sensor issue and the guys from UFO flew out to TX and and used Mike's shop "Rennsport" is sealy, TX to take care of the issue. Jason and Tim seem to know there stuff and do anual rebuilds on quite a few watercooled track cars.
I'll keep every one posted on my results.

 

Keep us updated...

 

R u planning on upgrading to a 3.6? I'm kinda on the fence with UFO and vision right now

 

Concur on Vision. Dwain is a personal friend and has a great shop and reputation..

 

How did things turn out with UFO? All good?

 

Im still waiting for the $3,750 check from the dealership where i purchased the car. they had me sign a waiver stating that we are settling on that amount and that i cannot sue them...bla bla bla lol. So as soon as i see a check, I'll go ahead and ship it over.

 

What year and model is your car?
