I did the Iron to CCB swap earlier last year, and I spent hours and hours researching all of the coding threads and speaking with a bunch of people. I also drove my car before and after the coding. It is my conclusion that the coding does absolutely nothing to how the brakes perform, and it is purely so that the ECU has record of it being a ccb car and potentially for an ABS situation. Someone can tell me otherwise if they'd like, but there are no electronic pieces that come between the manifold and the brake booster on the vaccuum line - and I do not think the ABS module is doing anything during normal braking. The car did not feel ANY different before or after coding. People in other threads that have claimed to have felt this difference from coding seemingly also did other things while they were coding - such as bleeding, booster swap, etc - so I am lead to believe the changes were the result of those other things. I would love if someone told me otherwise - but I don't think the coding really does anything for functionality and if someone does think so - explain to me how it's doing that in a mainly mechanical system |

Has anyone ever done the iron to CCB swap without changing the booster? Maybe I missed it but I haven't seen anybody mention doing the CCB swap but keeping the iron spec booster.

I did the conversion on mine with stock booster, you don't need the booster of ccb brakes. |

So if someone with steel brakes wanted to do CCB swap. Essentially all you would need is calipers, brakes, and rotors. Coding and brake booster IS NOT required to run CCB brakes on a car that was equipped with steel brakes. Would the bigger brakes have any issues with braking due to bigger pistons and stock booster/master? Kind of a noobie to this stuff... thanks in advance.

I would advise you to send them an email.
They told me they can put the kit into production and supply me with one but I had already sourced a new set of OEM rotors so I didn’t get it, they quoted me £10,051.26 ex vat for 4 rotors (front and rear) to work with original pads. |

Your missing the point, OEM rotors are only good for about 10-15 track days, these rotors are supposed to be good for twice that and then you can send them in to get refurbished by pregnating them with carbon for 4-5 additional times for the fraction of the cost.
OEM rotors are garbage when they are finished and the cost of replacing them is almost 75% of the cost of a complete kit just for the front rotors. |

I’m not sure why you say we need to wait to confirm durability considering they are widely used with good feedback by the Porsche community. And according to them it’s a 600$ per rotor refurbishment cost so basically a fraction of the cost of replacing two OEM front rotors

Lots of GT3/2RS GT3/4 are using them. https://rennlist.com/forums/performa...ke-rotors.html And if you look at the long run it’s defiantly cost evective. I’m definitely going to try them out next set. |
