Default 1999 Boxster MO30 parts and numbers

Greetings, I am a new member and this is my first post. I have done a search and although I see it listed I am not finding what I need. I am looking for the parts and part numbers for the MO30 suspension package for my '99 Boxster. I am looking to stay in the stock SoloII class so MO30 "like" packages are not an option. Any help would be appreciated.
My dealer parts department here in Sacramento was not helpful. He did not seem willing to look up the numbers for me. (Niello)

Again with the newbie question. I wonder what the difference is between ROW and USAO30 parts? Is one a better choice than the other? Does anyone know if there are fitment issues with the 00-04 vs. 97-99 parts? It might be nice to use the S MO30 package over the base MO30???

I use to know the answer years ago but I forget. I think the ROW suspension is a bit lower, like 10 mm.

Years ago on the UK section of the Porsche site there was a ROW M030 retrofit kit in the tequipment section. I also see it listed in ROW PET in the tequipment section. The kit has all the parts you need. Number is 000 044 500 06 for a 1999. With Porsche it is usually cheaper to buy a kit rather than individual parts so check with your dealer.

If you go with ROW will that bump you up since it was not an option in the US?

Robby, you cannot legally use ROW in stock SCCA classes.

So it sounds like what I need to do is buy the straight US MO30 suspension. I wonder though if I can legally put the larger S swaybars on. I suspect that using the update backdate rules I would have to put the entire S suspension on to stay legal.

You may use as large a front sway bar as you'd like...rear bar must be stock and must be in place. Update backdate only applies to Street prepared.

It seems I may be in Street Prepared anyway since I just discovered the "EVO" High Flow intake (Just bought the car).
