Worth it to 'check' IMS bearing during clutch? Clutch recommendations?

[beater986]

Hi folks,

Newer 986 owner here. The car is a 99, and has had the IMS bearing done (or at least, claimed to have been done, there's an IMS bearing sticker in the boot lid).

My clutch is starting to slip, is it worth it to have the shop pull the bearing to check condition? Will the bearing puller damage the bearing/will this risk ruining it in some capacity? The car currently has 160k miles.

Also -- any heavy duty clutch or flywheel recommendations? The car will see track duty and generally will generally get driven aggressively.

Thanks!
