Thumbs up New clutch needed

After much abuse my clutch has slowly started slipping away.

Lasted 4 years, 42,000miles, 1 trackday, 1 drag day and general daily abuse.

On MY99 uk, modded with de-cat, tek3 etc.

Future mods may include bigger turbo etc.

Should I stick with a stock clutch, as it has served me well or go for an aprated one?

What are the limitations of a stock clutch?...I do recall somebody mentioning the stock clutch was fine even over 350bhp.

How much is a stock clutch and where is best to buy one?


BTW I do like launching.

All help/advice appreciated.


Regards,

Bob

if you are planning a larger turbo , then I would go for an uprated item. it was the higher boost in the mid range , that showed me my standard clutch was not up to it. cut boost and the standard is holding fine again.
