What's the most power you can run on a vr6 clutch ?
« on: 15 December 2011, 12:07 »
Thinking about the choice between the vr6 upgrade on my 1.8t or the stage 2 clutch on eBay, the eBay one will hold to 330bhp and 330 flb of torque will the vr6 set match this ??

If you need more can you not just run an uprated vr6 setup?

A Sachs or Luk will take more in anycase and a much better bet than a ebay clutch.

I wasn't suggesting an ebay clutch, just an uprated one  :smiley:
