We all know that PMS does not go out of their way to support aging cars so are there any deal breakers in the future or do we resort to using GT3 street car parts?

One huge problem I see is Porsche Motorsport's offer to rebuild 996 cup motors to 450HP. IIRC they called it a "Clubsport upgrade". Obviously that creates a significant HP disparity between cars in a spec class....

The benefits are many, both for Porsche Motorsport who can continue support old vehicles, easier to administrate for organizers and easier to setup and follow a budget for club racers.
Though when I glanced at the parts list for 996 Cup, it seems like some parts have gone more expensive.

Yes, we pulled a number of GTC-3 cars at sebring and I feel confident that the items we checked were compliant with I think one exception. It is possible that some of the cars had modifications to parts we did not check.

Is that PMNA offering or world wide? What was involved in that upgrade and what was/is the cost?

Remember that for PCA GTC-3/4 classes, the engine must be in the "As delivered for the Supercup series" configuration. These engine upgrades from PMNA will put your car in GTA-1 (996) or GTA-2 (997)
