Gutters, the resivour swap is easy, just like you discribed. Be careful, the platic nipples can get brittle over time, I broke one of mine (lucky to have a spare).

I used the 944 Turbo M/C with the stepped pistons 19/21mm in my racecar with the 944 slidercalipers all around. The only thing I had to do was to shorten the pushrod for about 10 mm.
The pedal was always rockhard and kept on performing even after 30 minutes of competition.
Good brakes can win a race!

Take care,

Richie

Richie,
Is the 944 turbo m/c 19 mm front and 21 mm rear for piston diameter?
Can you just srew the brake assist of then ?
Does it bolt right on or did you make an adapter? Since the mounting flange for a 1303 is different than for a 12/1300 model, for which application did you use it?
Thanks,
Walter

Wally,

It's a straight bolt-in for the 12-1300, for the 1302-03 you'll have to make an adapter or make new mountings.
The turbo m/c is 19mm for the rear and 22mm for the front brakes.
Just take it off the brake-assist. Al you have to do is to fabricate a mounting for the brakelight-switch. I've done that with a Tee in one of the pipes.
Hope to have helped you.

Cheers,

Richard
