A4 b7 2.0t Clutch Upgrade

[DaveFMoody]

Hi,
Im new to this forum and im looking for a new clutch kit with flywheel. Im from the UK and all i can find is awesome gti's sachs clutch kit but it doesnt include a flywheel. Like most people im going down the power route and want to get a performance one. Only kits that ive found are from the USA and would be subject to tax, vat and such making it cost just under 1.5k-ish. Can anyone recommend a flywheel or any other options??

Thanks

I had a similar dilemma. Even called Sachs.

I ended up buying the ECS Tuning RA4 conversion kit - basically a single mass steel flywheel and a RS4 B7 clutch kit.
It's on sale from time to time and comes down 10%-15%. An alternative is the equivalent kit from JH Motorsports (JHM).
JHM also does recurring sales throughout the year - subscribe to their newsletter and time your purchase.

Shipping is expensive and VAT adds up, yes, but I think the total will still come in under the cost of buying OEM locally, certainly below buying aftermarket locally. One thing to consider is using a freight forwarder in the US, like for example "shipito". You then fill your own customs form (...) and select whatever shipping option you like. Still costly, but that should help.

Case in point: JHM just launched a 15% discount. Use code "JHM2019".

I did some research into the conversion kit. The clutch is only rated to 312ft/lbs of torque. Would that be enough if im going for 350bhp??

Consider that the stock RS4 is rated at 420hp it should be fine...

I am selling a flywheel. Brand new, never installed, by SouthBend. SBC0501 is the part number. Let me know if you have questions. I'm already here in the UK so its an easy ship.
