cheers mate. so it wont work with my CTS box then cause that ib5 i think ?

Just trying to get the car sorted for a brunters thrash in april.

Think im just gonna stick a std rsturbo clutch in with a std fiesta flywheel then as ive fucked two alcon six paddles so far in a very short space of time. The first one the clutch was fucekd to begin with (manfacturating fault) but second seemed fine for a while then just let go. Could be down to my lightened flywheel somehow? although i did have it re faced before fitting the clutch.

ap all the way i dont rate alcon clutches for fwd application they just dont last, ap four paddle with there new heavy duty cover 3560-2 will handle 350bhp then after that got to be a twin plate paddle but in the mean time a standard rs turbo clutch should do the job nicely...

i'll see you @ the thrash
Alright Sean,

aint seen you tearing around lately. hows things?

Yea im never going alcon again. Gonna switch back to a std flywheel just incase that was causeing probs and use a std frst clutch or maybe stg 1 organic for now and see how it goes. I havent got massive amounts of torque so i think it should be fine for awhile
