|

Where can I get the large orange o-ring that fits between the intake pipe and the throttle housing? Mine split on me this morning... I checked both Performance and Paragon and neither show it.

Well, I got the o-ring yesterday and it's the wrong one. The one I got looks like the one that goes between the turbo and intake tube. I need the one between the intake tube and the throttlebody. I will check with SunsetImports. In case you guys haven't heard of them, they are a Porsche/Audi dealer that sells Porsche parts at cost. Here's a link:

I have ordered several items from them for my 968 and they are a great bunch to deal with. I just hope they can get me my 931 parts

Tony,
Sorry about the confusion. I replaced mine last year but it came in a head gasket set. If Sunset can't get them, contact Rick at Rennsport in Tulsa, 918-663-2906. He's found lots of unique Porsche parts for me.

Yep, Jeff's the man! I just ordered both the orange and the black o-rings from him along with the hood rod clip I couldn't get from anywhere else. The black tube that fits between the fuel distributor and the turbo is available for ~$43. New fuel lines are available as well but they must be ordered from Germany and would take a month to get for him. I was glad to find out that most of those special series 2 parts were still available new.
