Default Clutch combo confirmation please lads.

Im putting a clutch in my 3 door cosworth with around 400hp. Its used in the summer only and not every weekend. Im also not going to convert to hydro and if possible would like to future proof it a little. With all this in mind whats my best combo?

AP 6 paddle with helix cover?
Ap organic?

Others?

Cheers. Ross.

Good but of info here I'll be chapping the door of 400 next year and uprating the clutch is something I'll have to do.

So with a helix 6 paddle will it not be too heavy on the pedal and should avoid snapping cables every 5 minutes?

No it's surprisingly ok it's a bit different to standard a lot snappier but now I'm used to it
Even at motorsport development he said it was a good set up
