I've ordered one of these controllers as well. Waiting for it to arrive but after reading many of your reviews I'm likely more excited about this mod than I was the other mods I've done!
I have exactly three mods on my car. This, a naviplus Android Auto/CarPlay unit, and 991.1 GT3 RS side skirts to help protect the flanks. Well, except for all the leather upgrades I get from wrecked turbos on eBay. I didnt think Id appreciate leather sun visors and vents so much.

Was nosing around for a photo of your car with the GT3 RS side skirts but didn't come across any... That's something I'd love to see if you have a photo of your car around available to post.

It's pretty subtle but I like the way they look and imagine they keep things from getting kicked up on the flanks.
Before After I think the .2 RS sills are much bigger but these look pretty good to me and are way cheaper.
At least the scoops on the turbo serve a real purpose. On the GT3RS they are functional because Porsche wanted to use the Turbo bodyshell and needed to do something with the scoops, but they aren't any better than a more conventional intake setup. 992 Turbo uses the scoops for induction now, so I think they're in the same boat. Technically functional but there mostly for looks.

I thought the scoop on the GT3rs fed the oil cooler and or, added air flow over the engine to aid in overall cooling?

Nope, that's what the radiators are for. They are functional because it would be embarrassing not to make them so, but there's no reason to have them other than keeping the cost of the vehicle down by not requiring new tooling so they can reuse the Turbo stampings. Regular GT3 does fine without the scoops and makes just about the same power. It is really just a duct to the intake.
I have had a lot of cars in my time, bit of a car nut, but this is my first Porsche! Was never interested in them until I test drove this one and did launch control about 3x. Wow
Here she sits at her new home in Durham, NC with the zo6.
Car has 2500 miles and came with the matte black decals. I think they look pretty sweet, trying to decide if I want to black out the whole car or so something two tone with gold.
Decisions decisions...
After looking on here I bought the rs sideskirts and a phone mount, will post up pics later once I install them.
Car also came with a fabspeed exhaust, I have reverted back to stock for now to keep the ride civilized. Previous car in this bay was a jag SVR and I wanted something a little more ... stealthy
Anyway, I have enjoyed looking through these posts and hope to contribute more soon.
