I went with the Nickies, there is some controversy over cast iron/ductile steel cylinder liners for these engines. Looking at the price for OEM Porsche piston rings, the cost of the Nickies didn't seem so horrible.

Wow, that’s a long wait! I will definitely look into other possibilities. I don’t mind staying at 3.6.
