Clutches....

I badly need a new clutch!

So I was looking at the 034 240mm kit

Will this hold up to a BT setup?

Spec also makes a 240mm kit that can be ordered in different stages. 034 is putting one of those on a B6 that is 2 liter/GT30r and will be running a stage 3+ clutch 240mm setup.

F**k i was guna get the 240mm kit. i got a southbend stage 4 OFE with steel flywheel will i have problems????? as far as chatter and engagement?

034 claims it'll 400lb/ft of torque. My SPEC 228mm will hold 410lb/ft.

Personally I'm really happy with my SPEC. I purchased the Stage 2+ w/ Steel 16lb FW.
If/when I upgrade to a larger turbo and internals I'll probably go with the 3+ clutch/pressure plate OR the 240mm Stage 2 kit.

I buy stuff from 034 and I'm very happy with their services, I won't talk you out of buying anything they sell (they sell SPEC too).
Maybe just look into how big of a turbo you could even consider buying, and buy something that could hold that. When I bought mine, the biggest I thought I could want was a 2871, now I think I would go with a 3076 or an HTA if I went to a larger turbo.

ok and with the 16lbs flywheels it drives fine? how is the engagement with the single mass?

Drives great with the 16lb. Considering the turbo size, torque curve comes in smooth, and driveability is great.

Like any 4cyl though it'll chug/buck/generally get pissed off if you load it in a high gear below 1500rpm. Other than that I actually prefer the single mass to any dual mass I've driven.
