Quad - Amazon is telling me the pre-cat O2 does not fit a 997 turbo with their built in compatibility tester. Sure this is the right one?

Only issue with the prime versions is that they don't ship for 2 to 4 weeks.

You can enter that Bosch number into google and it should pull up sites that offer similar pricing. I bet you can get them cheaper than $122

For instance, FCP euro has these for $88 with free shipping.

I noticed that. Odd shipping delay. I usually get everything sooner than expected with Amazon. Not in a huge rush. Wonder if the CEL is slowing the car down though?

I noticed the cats look different. The pattern on the new ones looks like an HJS cat , very distinctive. Did you notice if both old and new cats are HJS?

Per Betim from BBI, I had the "old design" HJS cats. Now I have the new ones that are not known to have a problem.

I used HJS cats and the inside material was some sort of metal, very strong. I was curious about the one that failed, was the inside metal or was it some softer material?

Was metal. Very sharp to the touch.
