What clutch to use. Sometime in the future i would liek big power, like 200+ so id rather change it now 1 which will cope rather than splashin out on 2.

Ive never driven with a paddle an would rather stay away from it to be honest an jus go for stage 1 AP, what will that cope with?

Hi kev, it looks like AP are the best ones to use, they are well good for 200+, but... ive heard they can be quite harsh on the flywheel, (wear).

i had an ap fast road organic clutch fitted to mine couple of weeks ago, pedal is slightly heavier than standard and holds the power nicely.
lets see how long it lasts now !!

No organic clutch will hold 200 genuine Brake Kev. If you defiantely want 200 or more, then the AP 4-paddle is the one you need to get. Have the flywheel skimmed when you take the box off, and you won't have any problems.

You will hardly notice the difference a 4P and standard, it's a bit of a myth!
