Interesting a new clutch slave cylinder conversion kit.

I came across this today very interesting product next time my slave goes out might consider going this route. Not much info yet but looks promising.

"New product Thursday! We are very proud to release our clutch slave cylinder conversion for the 996tt and 997tt. This package does away with the problematic assisted clutch slave and gives you the pedal feel and control of a gt2 or gt3. Our all in one unit is a direct bolt in that only requires a clutch fluid change. Please contact sales@bbiautosport.com for pricing and more info."

your still going to have to remove the coupler from the power steering unit and replace the master cylinder.running dot4 after running petosin thru then m/c will cause a seal failure. so why not just drill and tap the trans for a factory setup?

this is one mod that doesn't need to be redesigned to death. 600$ worth of porsche parts 2 1$ threaded studs and a chrome cap does what every type of conversion kit does. trust me porsche got this right the first time on the gt2

I believe it's designed to contiune the use of the pump and Pentosin. It looks like it replaces the problematic power slave cylinder and accumulator. And I'm guessing you don't have to replace the master cylinder as well. Total speculation. Waiting on more info myself.

i suppose that could be it but just don't see how your going to get consistent pedal feel with a power steering based assisted system. this part may not have the failure rate but you won't get gt2 pedal feel until you convert it

Says it does away with the problematic feel and requires a clutch fluid change. IMO this isn't using Pentosin. So long as you flush the master up front you ought to be okay but the master isn't too bad. Big deal with this MIGHT be that you don't have to drop your trans to drill and it does away with the expensive bracket from other kits? Depends on price, if it's cubic dollars I'll simply wait till my trans comes out to use GT2 parts, I've already got a Boxer master

FB says it's an "all in one bolt-in replacement". I dunno' but much will depend upon cost IMO. Uber custom parts that wear and could leave me stranded also make me nervous lol
