My coop isn't exactly the most firmly built inside. Sounds like I'm going to create a few extra rattles with this. frown

I really think I need to test drive one! It's hard to get a good idea on the net. Anyone live near MK?!

Or maybe I should just go Organic? But I need a clutch that can handle significantly more than 400Bhp...

Nigel has a helix organic and runs 330+lb/ft. The organic has a near OE feel with just a bit more bite.

Clutches are rated on torque, not bhp, WF

Yeah I know, but seeing as I don't know what torque I will be hitting when I get to around 400bhp, the criteria would be handling 400Bhp. tongue
