I hate to sound like a broken record but I wouldn't wait to do this upgrade. Most experienced Porsche specialists could do it in a day. Two hours to drop the trans, two hours to installe the new bearing, check some things etc and put it all back together. Waiting for the clutch to wear out seems a little crazy to me in retrospect.
In order to save yourself $600 in labor your going to roll the dice on an engine replacement that will cost over $10K? I'd rather pay the labor to take down the tranny twice and consider it a insurance policy of sorts.
