I have 911 steering rack (7820900166) and I'm thinking of replacing my stock steering rack (91434701401) with it.
What are the differences between the two and are their any advantages?

Similar but not identical. Actually are a couple different 911 versions depending g on the year.


Can you elaborate on what the differences in steering geometry are? Are there any series (years) that are more desirable to get the best geometry for autocrossing?

I never said they had different geometry, just a bit different. Porsche often makes small changes on parts and assembly's from year to year.
