You'll be one step ahead with that built motor going in.
+1 due to the labor $$$ and downtime to redo it when the factory clutch blows trying to hold 3”s

I didn't know the 991.2 TTS clutch was more capable than the 991.1 TTS clutch? Either way, I would be shocked if a 991.2 TTS clutch could hold up to your car's performance level without Dodson upgrades. By the way I really hope it does! Could save me some money!

Yep 991.2 clutch is stronger then gen1. Cars in UK doing low 4s even high 3s on stock clutch. Thing is if I want to go middish 3s really need dodson.

Dw I'll be the test guru when it's back and see what happens 🤞🏼

You’ll be at the limit if it holds a 3.X 100-200 and if it does, it probably won’t last long.

Yeah that is true. I mean not sure all money you spending is worth to kill the clutch and then you have to be back at shop in a need of Dodson for sure. Why not wait, save and do it right at first?! Thats just my opinion.

My feelings, really want to hit 3's without a slipping clutch. Anyone out there managed 3's without slip in the clutch? Also, my new wheels arriving very soon. All going to be taking good shape soon!
Cool build! Agree with above clutch recommendations. Can get a nice torque bump with proper clutch. What happened with motor?

why the motor build? preventative maintenance? seemed to handle just fine in the videos, just to handle more power thrown at it?
