If your running those kind of figures it will be more then just a clutch you will need to upgrade.SJ.

I'd get a twin plated clutch to go with the 6 speed you should have in place of the 5 speed

As S.J, start saving your pennies.

Speak to mattybr5@poleposition and put your name down for the next 6 speed set up.

It's the torque figure you need to consider when deciding upon a clutch.
With just under 400lbft I've just had an ACT HD organic fitted with skimmed flywheel. It's a single plate unit with a torque rating of over 500lbft Pedal pressure's a bit higher, though.
