Exhaust bolt repair kit for Porsche DFI Engines on 911/997/991/ Boxster & Cayman (9A1) 2009-Onwards

stomski

Holy broken bolts Batman! Even the latest generation of DFI (9A1) heads on the water-cooled engines are reporting broken exhaust bolts. Tasks ranging from a simple exhaust system update through an engine removal, are consistently plagued by snapped, rusted, and broken exhaust manifold bolts. Rarely can an accurate removal of the broken bolt be performed with the engine in the car, and even after removal, the task is time consuming and if not done carefully can lead to a damaged head or faulty repair. STOMSKI RACING's answer to these problems is the SR069, a kit that easily, accurately, and flexibly allows you to drill out the broken bolts - with the engine still in the car- saving time and headaches. A CNC milled plate indexes precisely off the broken bolts and/or bolt holes. Using our uniquely designed Thumb Screws, the SR069 plate is locked in place (by threading a Thumb Screw over a broken bolt or by using a supplied bolt threaded through the SR069 Thumb Screw). With the included pilot drills and drill guides, the faulty bolt can be drilled out, producing a perfectly perpendicular and centered hole that if necessary can be chased with an included M8x1.25 tap.

Kit includes anodized aluminum fixture, drill bits, tap with extension, drill jigs/guides, Thumb Screws, and hardware in a sturdy storage case. Also includes our SR065D drill guide.

Oil pressure relief plug extractor Porsche 911 / 964 / 993 / 996 / 997

Tolerance between the pressure relief plug and its galley are very close, and the slightest bit of gunk, corrosion, or bur will cause the plug to freeze up in the oil passage. A magnet is rarely powerful enough to overcome the seized plug, and leaving it in place is never an option.
Using STOMSKI RACING's Oil Pressure Relief Plug Extractor makes the task of removing the stuck plug a breeze, and allows you to ensure clean oil passages, and a properly operating bypass system.

The collet-based tool slides easily into the open end of the seized plug and a simple turn or two of the internal socket head cap screw expands the tool, grasping the plug to ensure easy removal.
