Clubsport S clutch

[sharper]

Sorry to be a party pooper but does anyone know whether the modifications on the CSS include an uprated clutch? There have been issues with manual Rs and I'm wondering whether the CSS with even more power is likely to suffer as well.  If the clutch is not uprated I'm guessing that Sachs will end up doing well out of us!

CSS red 179/400

I wouldn't sweat the extra 10ps and no extra torque. I'd hazard a guess that VAG's decision to add only 10ps and no extra torque is a good indicator that the clutch hasn't changed for the unit that is in the CSS, facelifted S3 and soon to be facelifted R.

Not many manual R owners have had clutch bother without chipping or tuning boxes that have significantly increased torque.
