So I picked up my GT4RS earlier this week and drove it around for about 50 miles. Lovely little car, walked away very impressed with it. I had to jump into my Turbo GT afterwards to go pick up pizza for the family for dinner. I have to say, the steering feel and feedback on the Turbo GT is actually much better than my GT4RS/GT3 Touring. Figure that lol

Good question, but I don't know the answer. All I can tell you is that the steering feel on the Turbo GT is better than the 992 Touring and the GT4RS. I suspect it has something to do the programming on the electric steering.

Harry's vids are great. His error rate is one of the lowest in the business, he has the breadth of experience to fully understand a vehicle, he's not trying to sell you anything, and he's truly passionate about cars. The sheer joy on his face picking up that Fulvia (which I would have tossed in the bin but clearly it's his taproot car as Jerry and Spike would say) was awesome to see.
I've actually learned quite a bit watching his farming channel too!
In any event, good review, I thought it was a pretty fair representation of what the car is and isn't. Considering he's a Range Rover guy through and through, something like a TGT isn't his cuppa which he said, but he didn't let that color his impression that it's a mighty impressive machine.

Finally
After searching for a year I was able to find an incoming TGT with nearly every option I wanted at MSRP! Landed at dealer (out of state) and should arrive to me within a week

Can you quantify this because the cayenne steering is artificially boosted which may make it feel "better" but the 992 gt3 is certainly better.

Uh, both systems are "artificially boosted", so it's not like the GT3 steering is "natural". So I don't understand what you mean by this.
Yes, the Turbo GT steering feels "better", so in my opinion, it is "better" with a lot more feel.

The gt3 is far more direct. But the turbo gt has sharper turn in. I've never seen that comparison so I was curious.

You need to own both long term and you will find out. Don't just read what journalists write about.
TGT is a 5000lbs pig, so as good as its turn in, it will never be as nimble as a 3300lbs GT3. So no, the TGT does NOT have a sharper turn-in compared to the GT3.
Not many GT3 owners own/drive the TGT as they're daily, so you won't get this comparison. Having said that, the GT4RS makes the GT3 kind of redundant and pointless.
The reality is that Porsche no longer makes the best steering system anyways. That honor goes to Mclaren with the best steering system on the market today. Try the Senna/765LT/675LT and your eyes will be wide open.
