No idea on what needs to be changed but measure the distance between the two mounting holes on the caliper. Then measure the the stock 996 caliper. If they are different (probably) then you will have to replace the wheel carriers. You would probably want to use GT3/GT2 carriers as the turbo front carriers are set up for AWD.

Also I hope that you have 18" wheels or larger as 17's wont clear the caliper.

I have 18" wheels. I have to look into the wheel carriers. Doesn't someone sell turbo brake upgrade kits?

Both EVO and FVD sell upgrade kits. You WILL need new hub carriers - TT's are 4WD and your C2 is not.
