hi guys

im looking to upgrade my clutch and flywheel, ive been reading a old thread from October 2013 about the cg motorsport setup,just because one person has had bad experience with them it doesn't put my off,  personal experience is better than any!

 

what other brands do a upgraded clutch and single mass flywheels and rough prices?

 

cheers cory

What's the application? Are you running up to and past stage 2 torque? Some guys on here still run a dual-mass flywheel with huge torque with an uprated friction pad & pressure plate and have no problems. There's a few of us (myself included) that have run over 300ft/lbs and full stage 2 on a standard clutch with absolutely no slippage. I believe Joe can't even kill his off, and he was RR'd at 370ft/lbs on a GTB!!!

 

Personally, I wouldn't touch CG with a bargepole. That's my personal opinion after reading enough threads on the internet (not just one person, and not just on this site!). To me, a clutch change needs to be a fit and forget item that is right first time. With that in mind, before I went back to standard I was looking at a Helix SMF & clutch conversion. This isn't cheap, at around £1100 fitted. However, it does the job very well and isn't likely to need replacing for a very long time.

 

Also, I'd be very dubious about believing the statements on SMF setups that are apparently 'silent'. Very unlikely you will get a silent SMF - you will usually get the loud chatter when in neutral and off the clutch at idle.

 

Ultimately, you pay your money and take your chance...  I'd rather pay a bit more now and not suffer in the long run. Each to their own though!

thanks for the reply alew_e3,at the moment im running a stage 2 hybrid, with no map, want to fit a clutch,

that's a lot of torque on a standard clutch. I think il look into a few other well known brands first before purchasing a cg, im not worried about fitting costs as il fit it myself

Helix

Plus it looks cool

I have used both the Sachs race engineering with stock dmf (dmf died after 20k)

And the Helix and SMF

My personal opinion is i love the way the helix bites. So thats my favourite of the 2. The noise i wasn't bothered with.

All depends what your after
