January: Featured Porsche 997 Upgrades

BBi Autosport Clutch Slave Cylinder Conversion Upgrade Kit. Porsche 997 Turbo.

The BBi Autosport Porsche 997 Turbo Clutch Slave Cylinder Conversion kit is a direct replacement part that eliminates the problematic factory power-assisted system for improved reliability and pedal feedback. The factory-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.

  • Eliminates the problematic OEM power-assisted clutch slave cylinder for improved reliability
  • Significantly improve the clutch feel and engagement
  • Propriety plug & play design
  • Does not adversely affect clutch life
  • Requires less installation time than other slave cylinder conversion kits

Race Plenum and Throttle Body. Porsche 997 Turbo 07-09

Adding bolt-on horsepower to the 997 Turbo is a continuous quest by many enthusiasts looking for more power. Reverting back to old tuning technologies, Agency Power has developed a larger throttle body and plenum kit for the Porsche 997 Turbo to gain added performance. The point of a larger throttle is to take in more air, the more air you bring in, the more power you make the 997 Turbo’s engine intake system works off pulses, so now that air is diverted to either side of the engine is not important as the volume incoming, the plenum kit includes an OEM Porsche Cayenne Turbo throttle body, which is a direct bolt-on and plug-in for the electronic throttle control with no modifications needed.

Rennline Aluminium Shift Knob

Unlike most shift knobs on the market, Rennline’s are far from “universal”. Universal usually means that it will nearly fit some applications and will not fit the rest. All Rennline shift knobs are CNC machined to fit specific applications, eliminating the concern of missing a gear due to a loose or detached shift knob. There is no need to cut, drill, or modify your factory shift lever to install it. All of our shift knobs are the ergonomically correct 1.875” diameter and have rubber trim rings installed at the base. 

Available in Silver and black finishes, for cars with or without integrated shift boots.
