confusion: 2008 955 or 957?
also 2008 turbo is one year brakes? Pelican states 2008 is a one year brake model. Some other parts catalogs say 06-11 are 955 and some say 06-09 are 957....confused

957, sold from 2007-2010 was a "facelift" of the 955 series, with some additional engine options. The front exterior changed considerably from the 955, the interior and rear of the car (windshield back) was almost identical to the 955. Engines were bumped up in power with the Turbo now at 500HP, and a new 957 Turbo/S was introduced with 550HP. There was also a GTS - a better equipped /S, and the Transiberia - a 957 with offroad pretensions.

There were some of the 955's sold in other countries as 2008 model year vehicles.
BTW - when you copy what I wrote from another posting, it's considered polite to reference where you copied it from.

2008 turbo 957 has older PCM and 955 turbo brakes. 2009 turbo 957 has touch screen PCM and the larger (more expensive) 2 piece floating discs from the 955 turbo S.
