Map and clutch

[dervpower]

I know this has been covered, but I just want to know how many people have got an uprated clutch in their mapped 130tdi?

I know everybody says get the Sachs one, and no dobt it;s the one to get. But not actually seen many people with one fitted. Most are stilling running standard i think.

Also how many miles you done on standard clutch with map would be cool.

Thanks guys!

As long as you get it mapped no more than 190ish bhb and under 300lb.ft torque your standard clutch will be ok.I know the upgraded Sachs one will give you better bite,more of a racey feel.

Cheers pal. I just wish everybody said the same thing keep getting difference of opinions.

One to think about!

Standard clutch is rated to 300lb/ft. Unless you drive it like you stole it (and its in a fairly good condition anyway) you should be fine on standard jobbie
