while the Porkentensioner is exclusively for sale thru 928sRus, and the rest of the parts are accessible thru Roger, however he does not have the best price on some of the parts...

tensioner, lever, and pulley are available at much lower prices thru:

partsman912 at aol.com

free shipping on these, last time I talked with them.

there may other places that offer these parts at lower prices, but I haven't found one.

if you do not have the HTD timing belt and respective gears, you might consider upgrading to those items as well. (more money, of course)

when ordering the P-tensioner, be sure to specify air pump or non-air pump.

As for non 928 specific parts http://www.autohausaz.com/ is a good place to check. Good service and good prices to. And latetly I found these guys http://www.rockauto.com/ super fast shipping to Canada via Fedex and they collect the costums fee/taxes up front so you don't get rearended at the door.

They probably work fine, but I wasn't impressed by the quality of the parts available from 'GMB ' (EG. pivots not chrome plated, etc).

I always get the OEM Rueville/INA and Febi/Bilstein.

+1 for Roger. His advice and support are worth it! Can't put a price on that.
I'm just about complete on the PKT, WP, TB, MM, OPG and any other acronyms ICTO
