Ponderings of an idle Sunday if you can shed light please;

How Is the gen 1 997 turbo manual different to the gen 2 equivalent please?
If the 997 turbo block is based on a racing block which can be fully rebuilt, should it not be cheaper if there is a big issue with it in that the faulty bit can be replaced rather than full replacement as would be the case with a 997 c2s block?
How much and how regular is the 997 turbo service please?
Here's the big question; is the % price difference between a new 997 turbo and a new c2s 997 bigger than the % price difference of the same used?

Neither Generation of 997 Turbo has the problematic M96 engine. Gen 1 has the GT1 and the Gen 2 has the new DFI.
