yes. this was posted in re: the CGT but applies turbo as well

The PCCB "street" pads for the TT and GT2 are the same part number as the CGT (980 351 939 00) for a complete set.
For the CGT the front and rear pads are the same. For the TT and GT2 they are different.

Sport Driving/"Standard Pad"
Standard Equipment
Good all-round properties, even for sporty driving. Good fading stability, e.g. when traveling along mountain passes. Suitable for racing circuits; however at very high operating temperatures there is greater wear on the pads compared with the racing pads.
New as of February 2004 - Black finish on all lateral pad surfaces; white stripes on the lateral pad surfaces of the retaining pin bores. Previously - Black finish on all lateral pad surfaces; red and blue stripes on the lateral pad surfaces of the retaining pin bores.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the TT and GT2 there is a TSB that recommends Porsche MotorSport pads for "for racing or racing circuits".

quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brake Pad For Racing Use
These pads can only be retrofitted at the racing circuit. Not for street use. Reduced wear on the pad at high operating temperatures. Higher tendency to squeal as compared to standard pad. Higher pedal force required at low operating temperature. All pad side areas are light green.

So, theoretically, you could use the MotorSport pads for the track by using : 996 351 940 92 (2 sets) for both the front and rear. These have no sensors so you would also need the sensor jumper kit: 964 612 026 70 (4 needed).
