A std 240mm mondeo clutch will take 200bhp (mine took 214lb ft and 204 bhp no probs, and it was second hand)

Ive use a 2 litre mandildo one twice, and a frs one once all 240mm not 220mm like the bc/ib5 ones (shirt buttons) People rant and rave about big brakes, but never say much when you say you have a big clutch, both are frictional devices and work on the same principals.
Why bother running an mtx with a standard diff?? No point in changing from the LSD bc box as it would just spin one wheel?

Cheapest diff I found was £500 with no bearings and that was not including vat? I

I don't think there s any point running an mtx for 200bhp the bc would cope fine IMO
