Default Best Porsche performance shop for track/racing parts

Hi
While i wait for my GTS, i was wondering what are some respected and trusted performance shops that i can source some track parts for my GTS when it arrives. I don't plan on doing any thing crazy to my GTS other than Pagid or PFC brake pads, SRF fluid, some more aggressive track tires and some tow hooks.

I am used to the BMW world and shopped at Turnermotorsport and Bimmerworld. I am looking for something similar for Porsche

what sort of parts are you thinking of?

Sharkwerks, GMG, PMNA, EVOMsit, CMS, Suncoast are a good start

Thanks for the suggestions! I am just looking for some basic parts to upgrade my GTS for the track. For now, brake pads (Pagid or PFC), SRF brake fluid, and tow straps (so far i've only been able to find tow hooks at Rennline.com).

I will probably just get the tires from Tire Rack. I really with there was an extreme performance tire available for the 991 such as the Yoko AD08R's. Love those tires on my M3 and it was great that i could daily drive on them and just drive to the track. Now it looks like my only options are Pilot Sport Cup 2's, Dunlop Sport Maxx Race's or the Contiforcecontact's.

Thanks again for the recommendations. I'll check those places out.

ECS Tuning and Tire Rack are fine for not so esoteric suspension and other parts. Pads fluids spacers the like.
Rennline good source too.

If you are looking to play with the suspension. TPC Racing has been working on some nice upgrades for the 991 based cars. Sway bars, spring packages etc. Drove a 991 Carrera at Summit Point with these parts on it and it was fun to drive for sure. If you are thinking of some of these mods, their website is www.tpcracing.com.

Pagid and Performance Friction, we stock them both along with performance brake fluids etc at OG Racing.

Kind regards,
