Title: What aftermarket clutches are available
Post by: Chris#101 on 27 February 2013, 20:12
Im still on my dual mass flywheel and oem clutch at 232bhp & 258lbs ft :grin: and im off to R-tech next month for there stage 2+map using tiv mapping software with a spec capable of 260+ bhp & 300lbsft

So my questions are what 'uprated' clutches are available for the later 6speed gearboxes?

I dont want to spend copious amounts but want one thats going to cope with the torque

thanks :smiley:

A Vr6 set up is old news. As stated I've got a 6 speed box so will be no good  :wink:
