Thoughts on this car?
My brother has spent some time with my 993TT and is interested in picking one up. He would likely modify it so purchasing one which has already been modified seems to make sense. I found this one which looks interesting. Modifications were done about 4 years ago and 9k miles are on them now.
I understand GT2 turbo's are actually not great for street use due to increased lag. I asked him why he chose them and he didnt know if they were GT1 or GT2. The work was done about 4 years ago. Is there an easy way to tell? Do I care?
Is the Sachs clutch a good thing or bad? I understand these clutches can be difficult to get used to?
Any other thoughts on this one?

"1996 Porsche 993 Twin Turbo, Black on Black. Always garaged, non-smoker, excellent condition. New GT2 Turbos, GIAC Porsche programming, Sachs Performance clutch, K40 radar, 993 Twin Turbo headers, S oil cooler, upgraded sound system. Never abused. New tires."
GT2 turbos (K24s????) may be "laggier" than k-16s, but when they kick in... stand back. GIAC programming... ehhh. UMC or Protomotive would be better. "Sachs" is the brand of clutches we all use. K40 radar... some like it, some don't. Headers? Really? They yield no real benefit, and you may lose your heaters. S oil cooler... better than nothing, but not much.
Suspension??? Still stock? Oh lordy.
If you are looking for a car with some nice mods already, this may not be the one.
