I like'em both!!
Vram revs better, & has a ton more midrange. The 95 has better lower end throttle responce, & more torque below 3krpm's.
The 95 also feels a little more raw, & really feels like it wakes up past 5k, basically it's got more drama. If I could get a Vram manifold cheap, I'd do it.
Changing plug wires still SUCKS on a 95! Good thing they last so long!

I guess everyone on this board got tired of telling the 996 crowd that the 993 is better than the 996.
So now, this is just an internal 993 revolt of the 95 guys to come out as the purest, best of the best Porsche ever. This is too funny!!!
Maybe we should make a sub-forum for the 95 guys.

I think we should break this discussion up into not only year but also color and options. I'll start:
It's very common knowledge that the best 993s by far are '95 right hand drive white cars with red interiors and sunroof delete. They have 20% more torque and their engines stay cleaner. Everyone who really knows 993s know this as a fact.
