g60 flywheel/ vr6 clutch opinions

[uksteffy]

looking into this upgrade to my tdi sport. already mapped to 180bhp and 322ft/lbs. whats the real benifit? engine reving sharper/easier? is it worth the money and hassle? is it that noticable to drive?

would like to hear from the people who have already done this and know themselves the differances before and after ect cheers

Changing (uprating) the clutch on a mapped diesel will increase the response when under full throttle/full load. As a result it Means you can change gear faster and actually give the car the beans without fear of the clutch slipping

Can you do this on a 6 speed diesel ?

No

It's petrol only

As far as I know your tdi sport is a 6 speed pd130, so you cant use the vr6/g60 combo. Only fits 5 speed diesels and 1.8t's.

I thought it was - Wasnt 100% thats why i thought i would ask ...

 

[uksteffy]

**** that then lol is there a clutch and flywheel upgrade out there for a 6 speed?

 

[Bondiblu]

As far as I know it can be used on the PD100, but not the pd130. Different sized clutches.
The PD100 and G60 share the same flywheel.

Yep. And I have the stage 2 endurance from them, plus that's not including VAT

Must last a while though and you wont need another flywheel so it's not so bad when you look at it like that. I only have what I have because I don't have the money for what you have lol

 

[Bondiblu]

It's the price you pay once you get the tuning bug!
