Probably a little late but here is a parts list that was put together recently. These are all OEM parts and includes the parts to upgrade the release bearing arm. Pilot bearing is not listed because I have one in the box.
2004 C4S
Part Part No. Qty
Flywheel 996-114-012-04-OEM 1
Clutch Pak 996-116-911-02-OEM 1
Fork Spring 012-141-741 1
Guide Tube 996-116-087-01 1
Screw M8 n-903-663-01 3
Intermediate Piece 012-141-751-c 1
Fork Spring 012-141-741 1
Torx Screw 9A7-004-076-00 6
Rear Main Seal ????? 997-101-212-01 1
Release Fork 997-116-712-01 1
Ball Pin 996-116-716-02 1
Clutch Clamp 996-116-741-00 1
Clutch Sealing Ring 996-116-743-00 1
In my case I needed none of this. Frustrated with my local dealer I hopped in my C2 on a sunny day, googled for the next closest dealer, drove 40 miles and found an excellent Porsche dealer in Warrington Pa.
Unlike my local Lehigh Valley Pa dealer, Warrington Porsche listened to me, checked the servo spring and reported that it "wasn't doing what it was supposed to". I approved the replacement of the servo spring and viola, clutch works perfectly.
Warrington saved me $$thousands$$ and gained a new customer.

Isn't that clutch servo spring the thing that a lot of people remove on purpose to regain clutch "feel"?

Yes, I've read that many folks have removed it because the clutch feels is "too light". In my case the spring broke in two places allowing one part of the spring to wedge in the coils of the remaining piece making it extremely stiff and nearly impossible to depress.
I will say that it is my belief that the spring must do more than provide for less pedal effort. My clutch engagement point is definitely more consistent now.
