Hey hope someone can offer some advice

(1) What clutch do you reccomend for 200-220BHP, I really want to avoid a paddle clutch but obviously if nothing else suits Ill have to get one..

(2)250-280

Thanks in advance

1. organic, but this depends how you drive the car!!. Paddles are not that bad, you only get a bit of judder on take up, it is as light as the standard ford unit..

2. Paddle no question..

It depends excursion, on what way you have got your power

i mean, if you have lowered your compression to 1:1:1 then your gonna need a paddle,

or maybe a boat aswell, go for some fins too :lol:

My compression is 7.8:1 :grin:

I have a ERST Box and 4 paddle AP Racing Clutch.. Its brilliant..

Can easily use it in traffic.. It is tight, responsive and i love it.. Much better than standard..

Not too heavy, not at all on off, you can slip it in traffic..

There is a nack to it, its easy to master

Go AP Paddle made, trust me
