This is it.. no other choices besides the 5.5 Clutch setup we offer. It saves another 3lbs, but requires a different TO bearing. This 7.25 setup allows you to use the stock TO bearing and clutch pedal system.

Feedback: You will be contacting me via Skype/phone whatever when you go to install a pedal stop. The "throw" on the pedal becomes a lot less and will need a stop to keep it from bending the steel friction plate/diaphragm in the system. Not hard to do, but has to be done to keep from damaging the clutch parts. It will take a few trial/error attempts, but Tilton/Myself can explain how to adjust the clutch.

ALL Porsche factory race cars use this setup (either a 5.5 or 7.25) so we know it works, its easy to service and easy to get parts for (which is why it was developed around common race parts) I believe AP fits the same bolt pattern as the Titon (AP is based in the UK I believe)

It is Directly across the street from the Fullerton airport.

I'll warn you: the shop is loaded with Boxster's/Caymans/GT3's/Race cars

We are not the **pretty** shop. I don't have a customer lounge with flat screens (the TIG welder would burn them up.. lol)

Just picked this up today (hot off the presses) and thought I'd share it (haven't shared anything in awhile)


New multi disc 7 inch Tilton setup for BoxsterS 6speed cars (a 5 speed version will be done soon, they are have the splines cut for the friction discs)

It appears they will retail for $2200 depending on who you buy through...

Pure parts/car porn.. real racing clutch *finally* for the Boxsters. I love it!!

We used this setup in Grand Am with great success, so the technology was transferred to a flywheel that fit the Boxster!!

For those of you who really want the full race stuff.. there is a 5.5 that is ready also!!!

Sorry. Couldn't resist It was in my first post of the thread. I don't **believe** the price has changed.

I'll check tomorrow morning our time and post back here.

I sell them. The company who makes them is 15min down the street from me

Brad,
Are you located on Commonwealth Ave.? It seems that you are in the same area where Jeff Ericson (AASE) shop used to be, hopefully I can stop by one of these days, thank you!

I am about 1mile from where they used to be

We are on Artesia which is one street over from where they were on Commonwealth.

This area is loaded with HotRod guys/performance guys (which is why I drive 38miles to and from the shop everyday)!! We are surrounded by everything anyone could ever need!!
