You're welcome. To my knowledge no one has come up with a comprehensive kit that would have OEM reliability and not look like it was frankensteined onto the car. Glad I could share.

Now I got some numbers.. :-)
On slicks with about 650-700hp the temperature stayed around 115C.
Standing in the paddock with the engine running afterwards the temperature sank quite fast down to around 100C..

Knowing that the 997CUP cars have temperatures up around 120/125C it felt quite ok!

Thanks for the numbers Pete. 115C is 239F. What were your ambient track temperatures and how long was your track session prior to your temperature readings? Also, where is your temp sensor located? Is it near the LSD as this is the hottest area. My highest readings of 105C (221F) were seen at the end of the 3rd 25min session during the hottest part of the day with track temps right at 37C (99F) running on R compound tires at 550-600hp. In any case, looks like both systems are quite effective.
