Featured Shop Project. 2011 Porsche 997.2 GT3 ready for the track with welded coolant pipes and safety upgrades!!!For improved safety, we installed BBi Autosport StreetCup Roll Bar & Schroth Racing Harnesses. For ease of installation, our bar features 4 interlocking joints and a sweep in the main hoop for clearance around the carpet and plastic underneath it. As a result, it is one of the easiest bars to install on the market and no more damaged windshields or headliners. New dealers & wholesale inquiries welcomed. Please email sales@bbiautosport.com for more information!

BBi Autosport Porsche 997.2 GT3 Billet Aluminum Coolant Pipe Kit



As the best preventative fix/solution for this problem, BBi Autosport offers replacement billet aluminum coolant pipes to be permanently welded. Compared to the factory fittings, the replacement BBi billet fittings offers superior metallurgy to allow stronger, higher quality welds. We offer this complete service at our facility in Southern California from start to finish. For clients that are not local, we sell the billet aluminum pipe kit separately and also work with many Porsche dealerships and shops throughout the US to have the parts shipped to us for the welding service.

Despite this being the best solution for the problem, the biggest caveat is being able to properly weld the fittings as it requires extensive surface preparation and welding skills. Our team carefully removes the engine, disassembles the necessary components, and then thoroughly cleans them in our ultrasonic cleaner to ensure that it can be properly welded. Afterwards, our in-house fabrication department meticulously weld each replacement pipe and then our technicians pressure test each set for for leaks prior to reinstalling the engine or ship out the parts. Here are pictures of the kit and the process
