Since I have been such a proponent of the KEP stage 2, I now feel that I should warn possible buyers.
KEP is having problems with their stage 2 for the 944 turbo.
They WILL warranty the pressure plates, but this does not compensate for the 20 hours of labor on a 944 clutch job.
The problem is that the forks are breaking.
I have now heard of SEVERAL instances (including my own).

I use a relatively thin, six puc ceramic disk, and the piston travel WAS set at minimum, so no problem there.

I would advise you against one, for the time being....

Thanks for the info.

Do you think the KEP stage "1" can also be affected?

Is this just a bad lot or every KEP for the 944 made?

Is you Avatar a picture of you and the Spec rep?

I think the kep stage I does the same job and creates less stress on the fork

Hope my newly warrantied stage 1 will be ok

Won't the stage 1 KEP PP handle up to 400# of torque?

lart951

I heard that can hold up to 800lbs

with the right clutch disk

Simple crack check spray/detector/cleaner proves worth the $20 cost of the kit when you take the fork out.

And I have just been privately advised of another failure on a car in a stock class.

Oh great, I'm just about to install exactly the same setup you've been using...
are they saying any dates or product recall. Is there batch no's on the plate itself?
