here with the 996TT there are more dicisions, different setups and lots more to choose from and learn about etc...

good tip on the calipers, I am thinking of getting mine rebuilt and painted/coated...

my car had like 16k when i bought it last year so calipers were in good shape. did you get a k16 car or bigger turbos?

Are these similar to K24/18G's? Since I already have K24's & tune would these give me a decent increase?

No the 18Gs will make more power then these. These are marginally better then regular K24s.
- These turbos are an upgrade to people with K16s
- Since I am about 3 hours away from Blouch which is the place that does the 18G conversions. I can have these turned into the brand new and not yet advertised Billet 18Gs or 20Gs. I can get a very good deal.

Pulled them out over the weekend. They are ready to go to a new home. Checked for shaft play - there is absolutely no shaft play in them !! Dropped the price as well.
