Ok I need soemadvice/help on a clutch for my S2..

At the min, its running about 9psi, not a lot suppose to be standard, but my clutch is fooked, it slips in every gear above 3.5rpm...

now i got her in a Stus for a chip and setup on 14th Oct so obviously want to get it done before then...BUT the things is I haven't a clue what clutch to get...can you give me some ideas please all

I have posted this in General but its in my fellas name which has resulted in hardly anyone friggin replying Kind of backs up what people say about not replying to newbies But anyways pmsl

 

if your not running huge boost you can go for a standerd clutch but if i was you id go foe a stage 1 paddle clutch. Give Woodford garage a ring they were very helpfull when i bought my clutch

 

Defo don't want a standard cluthc, if i keep the s2 then i will be going for a bit more power pmsl

 

ahem, cough

 

go for a p paddle clutch then

 

I've always got on very well with AP organic clutches have one in my FRST and it seems good as gold. Bro has a AP paddle in his FRST and that's spot on and I use a Helix organic in my S2. Standard clutch is fine for up to about teh 200bhp mark some say higher but personally I wouldn't like to try it

 

six paddle

 

 

dont give me the ahem cough Rick, i replied and asked you a question to which you didnt reply THE ONES YOU SUGGESTED SOUNDS EXPENSIVE AND MORE THAN WHAT I NEED.... just incase you missed it the first time

My mate kept a standard one in his and when he had it chipped he went through them for fun....had an ap paddle in my orion turbo.....that was only running about 160ish brake though....

 

as above my ap organic holds 220bhp and as had for 2 years

 

Well, here is my opinion on RST clutches.

Up to 200bhp - Good quality standard clutch

200bhp onwards - Used as a daily driver - AP Uprated Organic

200bhp onwards - Driven hard - AP 4-Paddle or Alcon 6-Paddle

In every case, a new clutch must be fitted with a new or refaced flywheel.

To fit a Paddle clutch onto a daily-driven car is asking for it not to last. They don't like the characteristics of this type of driving (hill-starts, stop-starts etc).

Although to fit an Organic onto a car that is abused isn't good either.

So, you have to make a choice or know the consequences.

In actual fact, my Alcon 6-paddle clutch is the nicest feeling uprated clutch I have used and is holding the power. OK, so it is really on the limit (it is blue at the moment), but it's doing OK.

 

What do you class as a good quality standard one

And who lists the AP Organic??

 

look in the fast ford mag m8 loads of people advertise ap clutches

 

Got one sorted cheers
