Its on my car. The clutch is fractionally heavier but nothing like as heavy as a five with a paddle.

Went for the organic setup and lightened flywheel. The standard one weights a tonne ( metaphorically ) and the lightened one must be 50% lighter. I didnt weight it when being fitted.

I only have pics of it fitted.

It wasnt as expensive as that Matt for all the kit. It wasn't £1300 fitted.

Ah cool. I took the price direct from helix at the time. I remeber emailing helix asking them if they could provide a heavier duty unit capable of above 400 ft/lb. It was a no at the time but things nay have changed.

You can get a >400ibft now from Helix.

It for some reason is much cheaper to ring a distributor that helix direct.

If your serious, I would ring Paul @ RS tuning and tell him the Andy sent you.

Terry found he was spending far to much time dealing direct even with traders let alone joe public hence no longer offering cheaper direct

Cheers. I have a single mass r26.r flywheel r26.r cover and an AP organic sintered plate. All bought relitavely cheap. I'm hoping it will last for at least a mapping session :crap:

After that I may stick with the cover and pop in a 6puk plate.

I think it will slip if you are going for serious torque ..
