Nein!!
AFAIK, there's been only one race clutch - Kleemann did a one-off clutch/flywheel/pressure plate combo. That did have chatter, but supposedly worked well. Of course, it was over $2k. Actually, Unorthodox did it, and I talked to the guy who did, and there are no plans to do any more. He didn't seem too interested, either. I talked to someone from Fidanza about flywheels (see my thread at the group buy section that went nowhere), so they possibly could do something, but I doubt it.
We're really SOL, and I think that my clutch is getting close to death. Sure would be nice to have other options such as a lightweight flywheel and performance clutches, but looks like that's a no, without purely custom work, which I'm not really interested in.

But I do know that my parts manager will not sell me the old one.
OH and apparently there is service information on slave cylinder must be replaced, if they leak, so I will just buy it to be safe. Again new part number for slave cylinder was created. As well.
Sorry Backordered Germany means 3-6 business day's before delivery, usually 2 weeks in real life.
