Hi Dan Im interested in this too ... I have been told exedy hyper single clutch kit is the way to go but around £750 and dont know if this advice i had is correct. Ill keep an eye on this and see what others say

 

I had a Exedy uprated organic fitted to mine by a respected tuner on here on the basis it would be good up to 400bhp.

 

v5rvltd and? you dont say if its good sh?t or anything ??? whats your point mate

 

i can get a 5 paddle exedy ceramic clutch supplied and fitted for 550 which is good for 400 bhp

 

where from mate i would be very interested in that and will it be ok for around 400bhp
cheers

 

as he said price and was it good lol

 

The hyper i quoted will handle over 500lb of torque

 

Sorry!!! Ever so slightly vague!! Supply and fit was £600 it was fitted in a morning, and it feels not to far away from the oe clutch pedal feel. I get a tiny bit of judder on pull away, but its honestly nothing to worry about, give it a few more revs than you normally would and its not there.
With regard to handling 400bhp, i'll tell you in a few weeks!! I told the tuner i wanted a clutch to handle 400 ish and this was what they put in. Hope this helps more than my 1st post

 

makes sence now ,top man .

 

just speak to david at API, he'll sort you out, They offer a exedy organic that will take 400/400, I've one in my uk turbo that was only running 330/330 and that felt just like OE.

I know someone running one in his 2.5 type R running just under 400/400 and thats coping fine but he is a ***** and won't take it up the drag strip anymore

 

It's one of ours in V5RVLTD's car. l know it'll be fine.
