Had one of these fitted by Barbz yesterday, as usual, I got excellent service from Torque Italia and he installed it single handedly in one one day! Anyway, there hasn't been much talk about these clutches on the forum. They're rated to 300 ft/lb and I have expereinced absolutely no judder so far (done about 220 miles). Based on my experience so far i can thoroughly recommend these as an alternaive to the GTA/Walkers combo and it's a no brainer to get Barbz to install it! I'll post up a further review once I've done some more miles

I'm running the Helix organic clutch with well over 300 ft-lb with no problems at all.

It judders a bit, but that's probably to do with what I believe was a dodgy flywheel and its put some hot spots on the driven plate.

Barbz told me to take it easy/not to slip it for the first 200 miles to bed it in, otherwise hot spots could develop and lead to judder. I managed to get around 140 on it before sticking it on a dyno However, it still seems to be OK despite not strictly following his advice(up to about 500 miles now)!

I got the clutch and I think the (my) flywheel was skimmed as well.
