I have a 2012 997tt with around 650-700 AWHP and the stock clutch is slipping bad. I live in Dallas and would like to know if anyone has experience with a shop in the area. Also what clutch do you recommend for a daily driver.

sachs 2.5 if your torque is under 890nm. the 764 pressure plate will hold upto that amount. Chatter free for a daily driver.

ERP Triple Carbon with GT2 Hydraulics conversion. I have a 997.1TT Built by Champion with about the same power as you and that was the clutch they recommend. I absolutely love it and Daily Drive my car as well as race it a minimum of 2 times a month during race season.

Depends on what your total power goals are and how much "room for expansion" you want.

The ERP Triple Clutch is great for guys either with or who plan to get moderate/big HP but still want drivability.

If you don't plan to upgrade the car more than you already have, (keeping in mind the room for expansion. There are many of us who start out just wanting Stage 1 mods but end up at Stage 3) then that clutch is overkill. You would be better off with one of the Sachs clutches.

However keep in mind, you only want to have to replace the clutch once, so get the one that is a good fit for your future goals so you don't have to replace one now, and then again 6mo from now.
