what does the IMS bearing upgrade cost parts/labor?

my clutch is coming up for replacement...I'm sure I could get more life out of it..but obviously, it makes sense to do them all at the same time... and maybe sooner is better than later...

can any Porsche mechanic do the IMS upgrade or is it something they need to have prior experience with? I can go to Jake for it as I live much too far away...so I'd hae to have either a dealer do it, or my indie. My mechanic a porsche specialist who builds race motors..so he is a capable guy...I just wasn't sure if it's a easy job in terms of technical skill..or is you need someone "special" to do it?

thanks!

My 2000 S started making the same squeaking sound when I pull away from a stop. I tried to replicate the sound while stopped ( hand brake on, tried both in neutral and with engine under some load, transmission in gear) but cold not make the squeak. It only happens when the car begins moving very slowly so I don't think it's coming from the engine. I hope...
