If you can't find one and have a spare converter laying around the plug on the side is the same thread

The cap (930.113.153.00) is available from any Porsche dealer for around $10 last time I asked, DC Auto has them for $27, or an M12x1.75 (i believe) lug nut works... I have the lug nut on my N/A due to the same exhaust leak, has held for a year or so no issues... I will replace it with an OEM cap (930.113.153.00) from the dealership when the "fix" I put on fails...

I MAY still have the nut set I used out in the car, I can check tomorrow and send you one if you want it...

got a spare lug nut on mine and it seems to be sealing just fine (although I don't think the threads are quite the same - I'm thinking it's a taper thread on the exhaust side?)

And to think I thought I was original with that "fix", as much as I hate doing that type of thing, it works, and when I did it my dealer could get the correct cap in 7-10 days... still haven't ordered it as the lug nut is working fine and has for the last year... It still has the original chrome on it... a little color shift but still working... does that mean I can say I have a custom exhaust with partial chrome components?

I was thinking that maybe i could use the tube to tune my car. I suppose since I don't have a catalytic converter on it, i could go strait through the exhaust.

So I suppose I'll just order me up a steel lug nut (wouldn't want to spend extra money on an aluminum one)

Thanks guys!!!

I will check my car tomorrow, I bought an entire set but only used one... I can't remember if I kept them or threw them out...

I installed a two piece xover and have no use for my CO tube. If he wants it he can have it for the cost of shipping. Shoot me a PM if you want it.
