I suggest you go over to the Pelican boards and use the search feature to learn more.
Yep, I'm learning a little more about the 993s every week. MTS and JFP in PA have been kind enough to share info with me also. I'll likely tackle the SAI DIY next year sometime, looks very doable.

Is it more or less fun than the 986? If the fun is equal, how is it different?
To be honest, as of now I'd say the Boxster S is quite a bit more tossable and fun than this 911. I haven't really twisted it up though, still getting to know the car, I'll be able to better comment on this after I've driven the 993 more. Like others have said, the "different" has to be experienced, not trying to be coy, you just have to drive both awhile to know what I'm saying.
