Default What Clutch for s2 ?

My car is due to be set up on the 18th and my clutch is on full adjustment n starting to slip like a bastard
With my mods whats the best but wont hurt my wallet to much as ive still got to get a front mount before the set up!

Mods...
Superchip
Piper 285t2
Double valve springs

arp rod bolts

KnN filter
I wanna run about 15/18 psi

Also can anyone give me an idea of what power i should get or there abouts?

You should see around 180-200bhp with those mod and 18psi.

A genuine Ford clutch will take 200bhp but the best clutch IMO is a AP racing organic clutch it (part number 2000-8 from memory).

I have the Organic AP clutch and it bites well, doesnt slip, has a good feed in feel will take 200+ bhp no problem.

A standard Ford clutch should be fine on that output. I'm running a HElix organic unit in my S2 at the mo and it hasn't slipped at all despite silly amounts of abuse.

I am veering towards an AP item though when it does finally bite the dust. My bro uses one in his 190bhp FRST and it seems a very nice bit of kit without a silly heavy pedal
