My 996 is an 01 3.4 . I love this car and it handles great with the PSS9s and GT3 bars . I think it handles much better than my boxster S with the ROW MO30 in the tight stuff.

Most of the info i got is that the temp swings are normal and that the early 3.4 motors tend to run a little hotter than other M96 variants. still a little concerned about how it just shoots up . In The winter time It take forever just to get the car up to temp.

My boxster's cooling system works just like yours and my needle even goes to the right side of the 0 in 180 in 100+ degree heat in standing traffic. Some of the needle position has to do with how it was put on the gauge in the first place... the needles in our gauges are not pinpoint accurate.
