Just thought I'd add to this as I was at GTI Inters this weekend doing sprint runs. Was launching the car at 6K revs and the clutch/flywheel was outstanding. Fastest run was 4.8 0-60 and 13.2 quarter mile.

Nice :)

Excellent! What I like to hear!

I did 6 runs in total and the clutch had only covered 4K miles since I fitted it in April. I launched 4 of them at 5.5 - 6K revs and it just gripped and went like a goodun. Very impressed.

100% getting this clutch for my LCR once I'm back from my holiday :)

Fitted one on my 150pd Leon. Only done about 500 miles since being fitted but I love it, same peddle feel as OEM. Holding up to 345lbft of torque. Good quality product at a reasonable price.

Thanks for the response, have you noticed any chatter / benefits with the SMF i know it is weighted very similarly but does the engine seem more repsonsive ?

Still running the clutch in really, yeah they is a little chatter around 1800rpm not intrusive tho & i'm sure that will go a it beds in. Does seem more responsive.

On a side note, think my dog bone mount failed yesterday not sure where as still to look at it. I'm running super pro Inserts. Has any one had any issues with upgraded mounts while using SMF just wondering whether to use standard mount to help out with drivetrain movement?

What have you done to your car upgrade wise, i should be going hybrid soon and will be needing a new clutch when mine goes pop, hopefully will be running around 220bhp, maybe a little more depending on the smoke.
Car is Cupra TDI, same as yours

Made my mind up after reading this so just about to order one of these :) Standard clutch doesn't seem to like my Revo Stg 1 map, but i don't know how long it's been in the car or how it has been treated in the past.
