All- I figured I would start a new thread so people can start posting their impressions of the replaced engines as they get them back

Picking up mine today and its raining! This should be an interesting transition from 4wd Porsche to 2wd Porsche for me…… (checks insurance)
Five hours driving later and my review:
Jesus Christ and the Apostles on mopeds - its bloody, bloody, bloody quick!!

Nice - I need to get my passion back for this car and I think this thread might be the medicine I need.
The other day as I was driving my C2S loaner, which is now broken it, I realized that this car is no longer crabby like when I got it with 20 miles but has some quickness to it. Gears a little long, shifts could be quicker, and revs a little too slow but I am being highly critical comparing it to my 2007 Turbo and the Audi R8 v10. But then I thought, can you imagine that the 991 GT3 is a second quicker to 60 mph. Now that will be fun. One of the many reasons I was drawn to the 991 GT3 is finally Porsche made a GT3 that was not only track oriented but gave it some serious speed. Not that the other GT3 models were not quick but 0-60mph numbers were never earth shattering but the 991 they gave it some cojones

Okay - I am hearing some good news from our friend Arth, in Dubai, that he will have his baby back in the next day or so. I am hoping for some good details and pictures.
Arth - no pressure on you!!

As I posted in the other thread it's confirmed now my car back is on Wednesday. engine got to the workshop this afternoon.
It's going into the weekend here in Dubai when I get it back so I have enough time to drive it and get some feedback on the changes/upgrades
I will immediately post the following day a video, review and some pictures.
Cheers
