Default What clutch would best suit my future power?

Currently using the stock clutch, 70k miles.

I plan on going FI in the next ~6 months, goals are around 700 HP when it's all said and done, currently have around 350 hp.


I'd like to get the clutch replaced right now, the car is my daily driver, and might see the track once or twice in its life.

What is the best clutch that I can get that will:

1. Last
2. Enjoyable to drive

Thanks in advance.

Mcleod single disk or street twin depending on how long you want it to last as well as cost. The mcleod comes complete with a pressure plate, clutch disk and flywheel. I think if I am not mistaken it is around $700-$800 for the single disk complete and I have not heard anything bad about them. Alot of our customers use them with great success and if there is ever a problem you just call the tech line at Mcleod and they can help you.

Default Try a Cartek Clutch

I've got a Cartek Level 7 clutch in my C5 (402/L92). It drives like stock and it uses the stock master and slave.

I have no chatter and Cartek rates it 700 RWHP/RWTQ.

I would suggest the mcleod single or twin also, especially if your planning on making that kind of power.
