Feedback on new 987 Clutch in my 986

Just want to give my feedback to the group on the 987 Clutch I installed in my 986.

One word - AWESOME! I highly recommend the upgrade if you plan to install a new clutch. I installed a new flywheel along with a 987 Clutch Disc and Pressure Plate.

Anyone else do this? And do you like it?

I'm thinking about doing this swap since I believe my clutch has failed and am going to have to pull the tranny anyway to isolate the problem. Did you run into any issues or was this as simple as just ordering the 987 5 speed set instead of the 986 set?

Do you remember the part #s you ordered? I just received a 987 kit and it just looks all wrong...

Looks like a 6-speed disc, count the input shaft splines.
