Does my 991 need the BILSTEIN B1 Sway Bar Adapter Kit?

BILSTEIN lists the B1 Sway Bar Adapter Kit for 991 cars with an active front stabilizer bar, the system Porsche fits with PDCC. If the car has PDCC and is getting a BILSTEIN ride height adjustable coilover kit, BILSTEIN calls for this kit so the active sway bar system keeps working.

Will the adapter kit change how low the car can go?

Yes. BILSTEIN states that the kit limits the lowering range of the coilovers to their minimum specification. A PDCC car fitted with BILSTEIN coilovers and this kit will not reach the lowest settings the same coilovers give a car without active stabilizer bars, so plan the target ride height with that in mind.

Does PDCC still work after the coilovers are installed?

BILSTEIN designs the B1 Sway Bar Adapter Kit so the factory active sway bar system keeps its full function with a BILSTEIN ride height adjustable coilover kit installed. The car keeps the roll control that PDCC provides, while the BILSTEIN coilovers set the ride height and damping at each corner.

What comes in the kit?

BILSTEIN supplies all required components and the installation instructions in the kit, with a galvanized finish for corrosion protection. One kit covers one car, and BILSTEIN publishes the instructions for this part so an installer can review the job in advance.

What warranty covers the sway bar adapter kit?

BILSTEIN covers its B1 component parts, including this adapter kit, with its Limited 90-Day Warranty. The kit is made in Germany, and Bulletproof Automotive handles any warranty claim with BILSTEIN for the owner, so support comes from the place the kit was bought.

Description

BILSTEIN B1 Sway Bar Adapter Kit for 991 Porsche 911 with Active Front Stabilizer Bar

BILSTEIN’s B1 Sway Bar Adapter Kit lets a BILSTEIN ride height adjustable coilover kit go onto a 991 Porsche 911 with an active front stabilizer bar, the system Porsche fits as part of PDCC, while the factory active sway bar system keeps its full function. BILSTEIN engineers these adapter kits to work with its own coilovers on cars with active sway bars, and it supplies every required component and the instructions in the box.

Design and Performance

Fitting the kit has one trade-off that BILSTEIN states plainly: it limits the lowering range of the coilovers to their minimum specification. A 991 with PDCC keeps its roll control and gains BILSTEIN damping and height adjustment, but not the lowest settings the same coilovers reach on a car without active stabilizer bars.

About BILSTEIN

BILSTEIN was founded in 1873 by August Bilstein in Altenvoerde, now Ennepetal, Germany, where its engineers are still based. In 1957 it fitted the first monotube gas pressure shock absorber to a Mercedes-Benz series production car, and Audi, BMW, Porsche and Volkswagen are among the carmakers that have used its dampers as original equipment since. BILSTEIN develops its suspension on its own test circuit in Papenburg and on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and it has been part of thyssenkrupp since 2005.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
