Keep us updated on the performance and maintenance.
I unfortunately had no choice as my 2.5L died on me at 22K. So by the advice of some on the board, they recommend me to go ahead and put in the 3.4 as it would be very close to the cost of the 2.5.

I don't have access to a Dyno, so I can't put out the WHP. I just have to go on what I feel. Talking to Todd, who did have access to a dyno, with 3.4L and Supersprint headers and Fabspeed exhuast, it was 280 WHP. The new Cayman S 3.4L 295hp puts out 269 WHP. So my guess is roughly 305-310 HP once I get all the proper setup. Engine noise is about 10 decible higher to me but that might be from having much too small headers on the new 3.4L. Don't mind it too much for the instant touch and go I now have.
