It's from RS Barn. It's their solution to the 968 dual mass flywheel.

I know, but there was no other choice for a 968 that would work well. Since the friction plate is replaceable, the actual flywheel should last a very long time. If I go through discs like I have been, it will be more cost effective, and a much easier job. I never want to replace a 951 clutch again. The 968 clutch can be done in a few hours. I think the 951 clutch is 12 - 15 hours. It took me and Sean a day and a half to replace my last clutch setup that only lasted about3K miles.

It's a very well done piece. RS Barn also made the clutch disc for my particular application to match up with the 911TT Sport PP. They have a few customers with 968 turbo cars putting down power, and this disc has held up well. We looked at the 911TT sport disc, and felt their design for the 968 turbo cars was the better choice.
