What kind of clutch to use?
Posted: Sat Feb 17, 2007 4:55 pm
Hi guys!
I have the following question: What kind of clutch(system) shall I use on a more powerful setup?
I hope soon I could reach around 300 HP (at flywheel) and 320 Nm of torque. And I use quite often my car as a dragracer, so I think I have to do something with my clutch.
Until now I used the standard twin plate system, but now it's hard to get good quality plates for it. The last one I have it in was bought on the ebay but its quality is not comparable to the original after market Sachs one I had before.
Is there any possibility to upgrade or tune up the original cover with a stiffer one?
Is it OK to apply sinter-metal on old plates frames?
Or is it better to go for a single plate platform and try to find a harder cover and high-quality plate for that?
What do You use on Your even more powerful cars?
