New clutch needed, Sachs or Porsche,

I went through this in late 2017. There is a thread here:

General advice is to consider replacing the flywheel also but it's all in the thread.
To answer your question - I chose Sachs clutch and have no complaints.

I replaced my clutch and flywheel myself.
I used LUK fly and Sachs clutch, on good authority these are the OE suppliers, so same part different box.
Don't buy from design 911
I got clutch fly and a load of other bits under £450 from carparts4less with a black Friday code. They are always doing codes.
Check my link in my sig for the other jobs done with the box out.

I did the clutch last year and went for LUK items plus a replacement release arm/pin/boot and must say I am very happy with the apparent quality out of the box and feel once fitted.
What I would say is that I also fitted a new clutch slave cylinder and bled the system at the same time.
The removed slave cylinder, although intact and not leaking in way, felt decidedly stiff and notchy, so might be worth considering changing it as well.

Ah yes I did mine too, the plastic end cap had worn away on my slave and was wearing away at the metal arm.
A new one (SACHS ~£60) and the arm and pin has been revised by Porsche to a 997 part to eliminate creaking (OPC ~£100) and my clutch is silky smooth.
