Product Description:
The BBi Autosport Porsche 997 Turbo Clutch Slave Cylinder Conversion Kit is a direct replacement part that eliminates the problematic factory power-assist system for improved reliability and pedal feedback.
The factory power-assisted clutch system has always been the Achilles heel for the Porsche 997 Turbo. Utilizing the power steering system to help reduce the force needed to depress the clutch pedal, it is a flawed design that delivers a mushy pedal feel with poor feedback, and is highly prone to failure.
Unlike other kits, the BBi Autosport kit is designed be used with OEM clutch master cylinder, hose, and spring pack. This eliminates the need for additional parts, making our kit a complete plug and play solution.
The other kits on the market simply adapts factory 996 GT2 parts with aftermarket brackets and caps off the power steering pump with plugs. The BBi Autosport kit's proprietary design does not plug the power steering pump because the plugs can fail. Instead, the power steering fluid is routed through the unit to simulate the factory system.
With the failure of the factory system inevitable, this is a must upgrade for the 996 and 997 Turbo to achieve the excellent pedal feedback and reliability like that of the Porsche 997 GT2 and GT3 without compromising drivability.
