At last- Uprated Turbo clutches!

Post by VanDerGraaf » Thu Mar 30, 2006 9:55 pm

I just thought i'd post and let people know that Techniclutch have started selling uprated clutches for the 440/460/480 Turbos in BOTH sizes!! :wave:

They are a new product, this is their first week on sale.

I know they have an fast road organic kit, not sure about paddles etc.

http://www.techniclutch.com/
They don't have them on the site yet but i'm sure they'll give you more info on them.
This is a positive step- the first new Turbo-specific upgrade available off the shelf for a long time. Hopefully things might get better from here on in! :lol:

Yeah! But i'm a bit scared that the M59 box will just die after a while, even if you don't get the maximum power upgrade, the torque......... :shock:

Find a strong replacement first and then you're in business!

Just the Groom's opinion,but having run the 170 BHP mod now for 60000 miles,I'd get the 3 bar map sensor but only have Rich do 200 BHP.

That,to me,would be about spot on......
