Question

Hi Guys,

I have been told that the STI III engine has a design feature (bug?) that means fitting heavier uprated clutches is a bit of a no-no. I have only heard this from one source.

Can anyone shed any more light on this? Please!

Thanks Jon,

Would I be right in guessing that it was Dave Griffiths who told you that? If so, then he told me the same thing, so it is consistent from that source at least!
