Evening y'all, Looking for any advice on the clutch skuzzle now sells, anyone have any experience with it? Not met nick at skuzzle but from what I've seen/read they're well respected! I'm almost definitely going turbo at some point, and the clutch will need swapping soon anyway. I had looked at the exedy organic clutch which is slightly cheaper, but the skuzzle one sounds perfect if the description is anything to go by! Any thoughts would be great  |

It looks very very similar to the helix clutch kit that P5 used to sell.... Phil didn't rate that for anything like 500HP though, IIRC it was about 300...
I'm interested as to how it can cope with a fairly significant amount more power than almost any other clutch without having a heavy pedal though. At some point it's down to clamping force, which is directly linked to pedal weight, but they say the pedal is as light as standard.

Thanks! Shame on me and my family, I didn't even look down the page to see your thread before posting š really that good ey? I know a lot claim to have a light pedal, but if it really is that close to stock it could be a winner. I don't see myself ever going past 250 at the wheels, and even that would be a stretch, but it'll still be a daily so paddle clutches are a no no. |

But it does seem to be the best all round package I've found, it's my daily and will be without boost until early next year I'd imagine, so a stock feel would be desirable, with room for power later |

FM Stage 1 would probably be fine as well for that power and has a light pedal, but you will pay a premium at the moment for importing from the US...

support your local businesses I was considering the FM kit but looking at the reviews they seem to struggle with longevity so am looking at the Skuzzle kit as the pedal pressure is a winner. G19 do something similar & cheaper but they do say pedal pressure is significantly increased. |

If you are on a budget, I've got a P5 / Helix clutch in the shed that should cope with anything an engine with standard internals can take... I really should dig it out and take some pics as it's just taking up space!
