Performance Exhaust
IMS Bearing Upgrades:
If you own a Porsche, you have probably heard the term “IMS Bearing Failure.” IMS stands for Intermediate Shaft (Bearing) which supports the intermediate shaft on the flywheel side of the motor. They work to drive the camshafts indirectly off the crankshaft and by using this intermediate shaft, it reduces the speeds of the chains and prolongs their life.
The IMS bearing has become a standard build for Porsche’s horizontally-opposed flat 6 engine.
