As above lads, one that can handle over 196lb/ft of torque, tried ebay, rapidford, burton, etc.....many thanks....

Loads. An AP Organic or Helix Organic will cope easily

 

Im struggling on where to find any websites that sell a clutch that can cope with the lb/ft im running, they all seem to only able to cope with 150lb/ft.....im suprised as its not alot of power im running......

Anyone have any direct links?

 

have a look on burtons website

Been on there mate....

 

are you running a 220mm clutch or standard?

This is ok for S2 220mm

Saw that, but it can only handle 169lbft of torque, im running 196lbft

 

The ap high torque organic clutch is crap. Not worth the money atall. Try a helix 6 paddle clutch. I got one from area six and was a very nice clutch with a good feel and will cope with any thing you give it

 

this one can handle more, but its a 220mm

Im running a standard FRST sized new VALEO clutch, but it doesnt like it, i have seen this ad, it says no good for a FRST

im running an ap 4 paddle with that sort of power and never had any trouble with it.
i changed it for a paddle when i put a stage 2 box into this.

not cheap, fiesta turbo clutch

Mates running 246lb/ft and hes got a 6 paddle..
Absolute ballache in traffic but handles the power no problem whatsoever..

Anything but a 4/6 paddle will struggle i think

 

Are fiesta and series two clutches a different size then ?

 

i used to think they was 200mm but im not sure now

 

FRST are 220mm, i have a budget of Ł250, and dont want a 4 or 6 paddle as i use the car everyday in traffic

 

mine had a 4 paddle ap + standard plate and was fine in traffic.

 

Where did you get that mate?

 

this looks like the one.

Think my problem is the pressure plate mate.

this is the ap one I use! for my FRST, I have a little more than standard under my right foot and it seems ok to me! to be honest I find the 195's tend to let go first and I have a quaife in it! - I got mine at amber performance many moons ago!

 

My FRST was 200lb/ft and used an AP Organic, never a sniff of trouble. Escort at over 260lb/ft on a Helix Organic and that's taken some serious shit. Not nice in traffic though. If you use the car in traffic I wouldn't recomend a paddle at all.

 

Had an AP Organic clutch on my old FRST.

That was 196bhp and 200lb/ft, never slipped once.

 

I use a AP Organic on my 220bhp FRST. Never had any issues. Jamie
