EM 996 GTS is infamous around these parts

the TechArt steering wheel has better grip than the OEM ones.

Does it have a much better feel, quality, etc.?

All of the above. The TA wheel starts off life as a stock Porsche wheel which TA thickens and re-covers with much better quality leather than stock. The finished product is a steering wheel which is thicker than the factory "thick wheel" option and it looks better too.

That one was less than 1K.

Of course, it came out of my '02 Turbo and was purchased back in '01, which further illustrates the quality the TA wheel.

I love my Techart wheel as well. Thanks Jack for the inspiration. I bought mine 1 month ago at a higher price. Kinda expensive but I love it. At Arling's price you cant beat it. Jump on it at that price because soon it will be over 2k. Thanks Arling and Jack.
