2 piece brake rotors worth getting to reduce unsprung weight?

I'm going to increase my wheel size to 19" rims. I plan to get some light weight wheels, but am still concerned about increasing unsprung weight. Would 2 piece rotors help and if so, how much lighter would you guys estimate they are compared to the stock rotors and who sells them for our 996TTs? Thanks.
