Read about this the other day. The big plus is having the same Bosch engine management so it's plug and play.

This article headline is very misleading. The 996 Turbos have a completely different engine that does not have the IMS bearing issue.

This is a joke right? Those V6 engines are no better in any way than a porsche flat 6 . They are very known for braking down.
