Title: uprated clutch for soon to be mapped AUM gti
Post by: davemk4 on 28 December 2012, 19:30

as above really. ive had past experience with black diamond both a stage 2 clutch and brake set ups with no issue at all and been impressed on the NA car. but on a big torque and bhp increase like on the golf what are you guys running as i cant see the stock clutch holding up to well? budge of around £300

with £300 you'll probably just be a bit shy of buying and fitting a Sachs VR6 clutch kit with an ABF single mass flywheel

My Octavia vRS mapped even with 120k on it was fine on the standard clutch, all down to how it is driven at the end of the day.

Mine copes with 225bhp and 256lb/ft no problems. It's not the power you want to worry about, it's the torque
