Default GT2 RMS?
I know they haven't been around too long and it's a touchy subject, but any sign of the dreaded RMS leak on the 997 GT2?

Turbo cars don't have the problem..... related to differing crankcase pressure scenario or so I've been told.

Hoping to hear from owners here, especially those that have put some miles on their car.

actually alex from sharkwerks prescribes the Turbo RMS seal for the gt3rs which can be made to fit and fixes the sealing issue- problem is, porsche won't cover it.

I suppose it increases crankcase pressure too much.

I believe it's a question of posititve vs negatiive pressure when comparing the turbo and the n/a engine.
