Hi guys

My clutch has finally decided to slip. I have a mk1 5 speed and was wondering what is the best price that I can get.

Looking at the extreme clutch or Mal Wood stage 3.

Maybe the site sponsors can jump in with help.

I dont need an over the top clutch just one that can handle 300rwkw.

Thanks

Adrian

Yeah stage 4 is a bit overboard for my power levels but thanks for the imput Jas.

The extreme is supposed to hold up quite well and I can see Mals being a performer.

Anyone got any prices$

Out of curiosity what have the T56 six speeds been taking in terms of power before upgrades are required?

I think for me at the mo an upgrade would be overboard, but I do like the idea of a quiker shift and changing the oil to something decent.

Expect the factory clutch to start letting go at power outputs above 270rwkw.

I had the Xtreme organic in my car, cost me about 1100 or so. Held the power well, however it didnt like more power.

I am not running a ceramic that is holding just over 320 without any issues.

PS, if you go a ceramic on a std box, expect your box to have issues as mine did. Now im running a Stregthened T5 with hardened gears.

Hi XR6ISM,

Did it cost you much to upgrade your T5??
