997 turbo engine under cover

Post by allanjenkins »

I’m in detailed discussions with an OPC on a 2007 997 turbo, and on inspection it doesn’t have an under engine guard or cover.

The sales guy tells me, yes that’s right they didn’t fit them to that model.

Seems strange to me – thought they were.

Is he correct?

I'm not sure about the 2007 turbo, but my friends 2008 GT2 has one. Same engine? Come to think of it, the 996 turbo had one. I hope someone who has one can let you know.

Well done! I'm sure you will enjoy it. I had a 996 out for a test drive and I think I've got the bug? Can't wait to see the photo's. :thumbleft:
