Default AP clutch - oh my god

just had an AP racing clutch put on my STI V. If anyone is thinking about getting one , then do! absolute quality. Gear box feels really tight and pulls so quickly off the mark (old clutch was burnt and scorred so thats probably why)

Anyway, defo worth the extra cash. Feel like abusing the car again!!

Had AP fitted to My car (STI 5 type R ltd ) F'n 'L . Made no difference.
Then again Car was over 400BHP @340Ft/lbs Torque.

Smooth as a baby's. (Recommended) *****.

just about... but the DO skim the fly wheel at the same time and change the barring (i think thats it) I do know they do the fly wheel as Graham said its not worth not doing it and taking the chance isn't worth it.. as everything is out, might as well do it.
its a good few ous to fit as well
