In tuned applications, increased torque demand often proves too much for the weak factory pressure plate, resulting in a slipping clutch unable to transfer torque efficiently. While clutch upgrades have become commonplace in the aftermarket, many include a single-mass, lightweight flywheel and sprung clutch hub - a drastic change from the OE dual-mass, unsprung setup. This setup is known to produce audible chatter from the transmission due to the decreased dampening provided by the single-mass flywheel - an undesirable solution for your daily-driven build. Thankfully, our engineers have bridged the gap with an all-new stock-architecture upgrade. Keep your OE dual-mass flywheel while increasing torque holding capability!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur 2.0T TSI Stage 2 Performance Clutch Kit is engineered to hold increased torque reliably, and features specifically-selected components to ensure optimal performance while maintaining drivability. Like the OE clutch disc, our performance upgrade features an unsprung hub, designed to be used with a dual-mass flywheel. However, the similarities end here. The disc's friction material composition was carefully engineered to increase grip, heat dissipation, and longevity. Despite this massive increase in power-holding capability, its full-faced nature ensures smooth engagement and comfortable drivability. Additionally, our engineers chose to increase the pressure plate's clamping load, ensuring this clutch will not slip in tuned applications. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDESIGN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCLUTCH DISC\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e240mm full-face, high-performance organic friction material with optimized material composition for increased grip, heat dissipation, and longevity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOE-like unsprung hub, designed to be used with a dual-mass flywheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePRESSURE PLATE\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreased clamping force over the OEM pressure plate, rated at 1,685lbs of pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePRODUCT DEVELOPMENT\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Stage 2 Stock Architecture Clutch Kit was tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team in our Wadsworth, Ohio, facility.
