I briefly considered the full GT2 conversion (get rid of accumulator, etc) but my old feet can't handle any extra load pressure...yes, I know I'm a wimp lol

 

You are not a wimp-I'm of the same opinion..c

 

^ so am i ( not a wimp but still ok with the poem setup ha ). i got stuck in la traffic for two hours on the way back from my techs place. even with the perfectly working hydraulics my leg ached after two hours crawling up PCH ..this car is NOT traffic friendly lol

 

exactly.

dr cheap you might familiarize yourself with the difference btw the stock 996 turbo "sprung" disc VS the gt2 UNsprung disc that will accept a bit more abuse. its a very good setup and works on my mid level ( bolt on ) modded car. also, you won't know the condition of your DMFW until you open it up and see how much material it has remaining. you might well need a new one.

the gt2 disc is the only add on I've used. it works just fine w "added" power.

 

Thanks all-I'm learning..c

 

if you shoot either sam at by design or kevin @ umw here up via PM.. you'll get the straight answers and they both sell all the parts. as someone said.. you'll get their "pro" advice for free. GL w it.

 

I've been emailing Sam and have a message in for Kevin-thanks...c

 

Don't forget the rubber in the dual mass wears out too.

 

Flywheel is hit or miss. Most say you won't need it. I've had a clutch sitting around waiting to go in for a bit now. Will have an Indy do it and if the flywheel does need to be replaced. Dealers are local and can get same day.

 

Thanks all-took a break from Pcars for my annual 3 day vintage karting event-two show winners and show winning kart took 3rd on the track,with and 3rd with jr 10yr old partner-all rear engined karts-a different ball game but been karting since 1958-next Sat all Porsche event at AMP with my TT...GROWING OLD IS MANDATORY-GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL....C

 

I got quoted $3200 for a new Sachs 2.5 clutch, including Aasco flywheel, Sachs pressure plate, Sachs disk, throwout bearing, and all bolts.

 

$3200 is way high. Skip the Aasco and stay with an OEM LWFW. What pressure plate and what disc are in the kit that you were quoted??? That's what you need to know.

 

I can do that whole package minus the Aasco flywheel but the RS LWFW instead like powdrhound mentioned for $2000.00.

Should have mentioned that the $3200 is including labor to install it...

Also - the engine will be putting out about 550-600HP...

 

What clutch are they installing??
