I'm running a 5 paddle unsprung CG clutch I my focus RS. Had no issues and it's nice and light holding 400+ bhp.

I have used them for re-padding my ap 6 paddle as it was dead .
Brilliant service !
I also enquired about a pressure plate for it to up rate from a standard one .
I told them it was a 4x4 and I launch it all the time 5-6k on the strip around 350 ft/lb +
They said I would be better of with an ap as there torque rating would no be up to it.

2wd would be ok I reckon

I've got a CG 6 Paddle in my 3 Door and i'd say it's better than the AP one it replaced.

Used CG motorsport for a custom made release bearing. Explained what gearbox and clutch I was using and they knew straight away what I needed.

Can't comment on their clutches, but their customer service is excellent.
