Default GTS .2 PDK ??

Does the GTS.2 use the C2.2 & C2S.2 PDK transmission or the upgraded GT3 PDK transmission?

Not the GT3 PDK S. Same as the other street Carreras

PDK-S (the GT3 / GT3RS version of PDK) is only available in the GT3 and RS, at least for now. Having driven both, I prefer PDK-S in every way.

PDK-S:

much sharper, shorter shifts
at a stop the transmission is in neutral there is no auto creep like a torque converter
no automatic kick down when the throttle is fully depressed in a high gear

The 991.2 carrera PDK doesn't kick down anyway, so that's been solved at least (although personally I like it!)

The downshifts on the PDK-S are intoxicating.

Like a pure automotive adrenaline rush.

It's a lot more than faster gear shifts. The gear ratios are entirely different and not suitable for the normal Carreras that has a turbo engine with a lot of low- mid range torque.
