Hi guys,

Looking for a replacement performance clutch and flywheel for my 02-plate Octavia vRS. I'm running nearly 230bhp / 275lbs/ft torque so need something capable of handling the power. Any suggestions?

Cheers

275lbft?

i have a saschs uprated clutch and lightened and balanced G60 flywheel on mine.

is the Mk1 vRS flywheel dual-mass? What are the "conventional" options to fit in it's place?

Thinking about it, I'm not sure what a dual-mass fw does.. except that they are f.expensive. Anyone care to explain the "benefit" ?

they ahev a dual mass as standard but my lightened one is a solid item.

the dual mass bit makes for a smoother power delivery.

And less cockpit vibration.

ah ok, i think I understand - there is a degree of decoupling between the part attached to the engine, and the part attached to the clutch.. is that the idea?

Hi

Yes you can do the G60 conversion

We do the standard ish one at £320.00 + VAT or you can do the uprated Helix one for £488.07 + VAT

Easily done , but as has been said it can give you a bit more vibration in neutral

The G60 flywheel is a single mass one and will be lighter than standard too

Has this any effect on tick-over?

I can understand "faster pick-up", but tick-over ,,,,,,,,, emm. :confused:

mine ticks over fine wayne

His name is not Wayne it's Albert.

It does give a slight vibration on tickover , but not enough to make it bad we have done loads of these

Have a look on the Awesome section on here for an offer we have at the moment on a 5 speed clutch

Thanks for the the help guys, Decided to go with the Helix Clutch. Will be getting it fitted next week so i'm quite happy as my car can't really move at the moment lol
