Always striving for innovation, BBI Autosport is proud to announce our new highly anticipated Clutch Slave Cylinder Conversion Kit for the Porsche 996 and 997 Turbo. After successfully testing on both the streets and tracks for over a year, the Clutch Slave Cylinder Conversion is finally available. 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, is a flawed design that delivers a mushy pedal feel with poor feedback and is highly prone to failure. Our system addresses both of those issues by eliminating the problematic factory power-assist system for improved reliability and pedal feedback.
Unlike other kits, our system is designed to be used with an 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 adapt factory 996 GT2 parts with aftermarket brackets and caps off the power steering pump with plugs. Our kit is our very own proprietary design and 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 excellent pedal feedback and reliability similar to that of the Porsche 997 GT2 and GT3 without compromising drivability.
