Default Interior 997 parts in 996 Questions

Hey All

Looking to get either a C4S or 996 Turbo soon
What interior parts from the 997 can I fit directly into the 996?
Headliners? Seats? Center console?

Does anyone have a supercharger for a C4S?
If I can find a supercharger for the C4S I will get a C4S.


Thanks!

I dont know about the trim fitting as a good deal of the interior changed between the 996 and 997, but I do know there are two supercharger kits for the 996, VF engineering and TPC racing make kits. TPC also makes a turbo kit for the m96 motor as well.

I love my c4s and how easy it is to work on and maintain...that being said I would seriously consider the turbo next go round.

All I know is that you can swap seats from a 997 into a 996 fairly easily but the seat belt connectors are different. The other interior parts are quite different so it will be unlikely that you can change those.

Clean 996 Turbo's seem readily available at great prices... Why go through the hassle of buying a C4S and adding an aftermarket supercharger? It would likely be more expensive with less value once completed.

Why supercharge a C4S when you can get a turbo?

Just buy a 997.

I have nto seen any 996 with 997 seats, anybody has done that mod ?

My seats are still in perfect shape but I think 997 seats look nice, more modern..not sure if they are more comfortable though.

Well I do think the C4S looks quite a bit better than a turbo, so there's that reason... And it's not exactly a slow car.
