there are two types of this, the standard corrado G60 flywheel or the above mentioned VW OEM SHARAN VR6 SYNCRO PRESSURE PLATE , the above mentioned VW OEM SHARAN VR6 SYNCRO PRESSURE PLATE  is good for up to 360bhp according to the seller and the corrado is good for up the 260bhp according to seller

lol, well I was going to follow that up with the link but ran out of time and had to go to work.

Well thats good to know then as I've got the mk3 vr6 pressure plate so will see how fast I burn through that then will try one of these.


Still cant find the link  :laugh:
