It is a prett hard decision. There is definate performance benefit. There are unfortunately some "loud" downsides. How much does the noise bother you...as eclou had said...it's a little unbecoming for a street car. However, the quick revs and bark of my exhaust really puts a smile on my face.

It's about the same as my neighbors GT3 RS.

I'm 99% sure my setup is the same as Mike/Todd's at AWE before they swapped back to the OEM dual mass flywheel.
The engagement point is nearly identical to the stock flywheel, which you know is pretty high compared to other vehicles. The engagement "range" is slightly shorter, but you can still modulate it to inch the car forward up a hill.
There are several that have them on the 996TT that use a clutch stop to make the travel length shorter.
That's the best I can do without having you drive my car (which you are welcome if you ever decide you like the snow
)

Can you tell if the part number for the clutch disk is different between 997.1 Turbo and 997.1 GT2
Reason is RUF in Dallas said they would use the GT2 Clutch with 752 PP, I asked for 764 PP and they said they could do that.
