hey guys just have a quick question. how much power can the std clutch handle? the car is bf f6 6speed manual im currently running 327rwkw and was looking at upgrading the intercooler to plazmaman 1000hp or process west stg2 with an airbox aswell. Im surprised that the std clutch is handling the power now ok, just not sure how much further I can go? any rough estimates? thanks luke

my ute had 5000ks on it when I got it tuned to 338kw, lasted a day...in the day was ok but the cold nite air when was making bit more power just slipped...lower gears were ok but high gears when ya loaded it up it slipped. I brought a exedy cushion buttom because I thought I could get away with just skimming the fly wheel cos it was pretty new but it was toasted. cracked and massive hotspots. so ended up getting a billet flywheel from mal wood.

all up cost me 600 for clutch and 300 for flywheel. I thought I could save some money instead of getting the opt 3 cos it comes with new flywheel etc, but ended up having to get a new flywheel anyways...

I would look at getting a twin plate, can get em for the same price as the opt 3 but should hold more power...

opt 3 might be ok I havnt used one

The prices are all very similar, ild go the opt4 for an extra $100

The 3+ is rated to high 300s, but can hold low 400s. Feels like stock.

I'd just upgrade the plates in the AP Racing twin plate you've got...

Whats the difference between Opt3 and Opt3+ regarding:a) Priceb) Performancec) Pedal feelCheers. Jake.

a) $260 (according to Mal's website)

b) 3+ is rated for an extra 60kw

c) 3 is lighter than standard, 3+ is meant to be the same as standard.

if the 3+ was available when I bought mine I would've got it, but I went with the option 3 as I didnt want the feel of the cerametalic option 4 when the car used to be my daily driver...

my option 3 has done over 60k kms with 270-300+ rwkw with no dramas at all...
