that's a very well thought out feature! dave really thought this through! so if 3.5 were "optimal" it would make that happen AND remember the setting! i can't even get my mirrors to recall their pre-sets any more!

Look what I've just got!

First step is gonna be: (of course twice, as specified by Dave)
Then I'll go on ski holiday for a week, and will hopefully manage to install it the week after.

Super-quick delivery, thanks Dave!

You are very welcome! Second set to Switzerland. I hope your friends see how unique the eRams are and decide to upgrade as well!

The Rennkit site is no longer JUST electric wing lift mechanisms... We are pleased to announce the addition of Joe Toth Composites! Splitter, Cannards and Side IC Scoops are a great addition. Rennkit is moving into other 996 and 997 turbo specific custom parts. Take a look at the very nicely executed Joe Toth Composite parts here: http://rennkit.com/product-info/joe-toth-aero-kits/

I need some help - not sure where to turn. My machinist lost his job, and thus his lathe. I need some small parts turned for the eRam kit. Please send me any suggestions you may have for a local machinist. We are pretty busy here in Michigan (automotive is going quite strong), but I'm guessing the oil patches are probably looking for work. Please PM or email me at djcooper@rennkit.com

Thanks in advance,

Just installed our first kit and it is great. Fit and finish are perfect. Thanks Dave, can't wait for more.

I installed a kit on my 996tt Thursday after work. Took about 4 hours total with me going slow and having to repeat a couple steps due to my mistakes. Very pleased with the kit.

I never got around to it, but here is my review of the Eram system.

I was the first beta tester to install this kit on my car after my hydraulic system had failed, after replacing the hydraulic fluid it worked for a little while, but in the end it failed again.

Going on a little over a year now, and having some issues which have been long resolved, Dave and his Rennkit have shown excellent customer service and communication. I have seen the product go through changes, and can say this is a quality solution for failing hydraulics system, which is only a matter of time.

Thank you Dave for all the help you have provided!

dave that toth page is a stellar addition to your site and offerings, given the wickedness of the parts. those dive planes are sick! great combo of parts along with your 4" e-ram kit. what a simple yet effective combo of parts they all must be. well done sir.

although i have hesitated on both the scoops ( kicking myself for losing out on that intro pricing.. rats ) as well as your kit ( given my hydraulics work ) i have no less appreciation for the aesthetics and functionality of the stuff! great progress, and it's been a joy to follow. much success!
