I personally think it's a worthwhile upgrade. I had my car less than 2 weeks when I changed mine. There's plenty of evidence on both sides of the coin, but ultimately it's the choice of the owner. IMHO if there's an upgrade for anything I want it! Anything mechanical is going to be subject to failure,at some point.

ivangene, I am still shocked that somebody got 40k miles on a set of tires. On a 911? Really?

ahhhh.... IMS, the new OIL thread.

Jakes stats wont mean anything to any of us..... its too small of the whole picture. In the end, noone has the answer to what you or any of us is looking for. Jake just gives us an option to "choose".... and that is good. Pick which side you are on and be happy.

Hey thanks. Because of the widebody, it has a turbo aerokit. The only other place I have seen a C4S with one is on wikipedia.

Nooooooooooo!!!!! I want to get back on topic.

Just kidding. I think I will look for some suggestions on where to by a car lift for a small garage.

Thanks for the welcomes. Much appreciated.

Works great. A bit heavy, though. I hang it on the wall when not in use.

Thanks for the link. I don't know why, but scissor lifts scare me. I have no logical basis for this fear. I was thinking something like this: http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...6167_200386167
