Clutches.. - toseland - 08-06-2015
Stage 3. New clutch will be needed at some point soon. Soon so what budget options are available.?
Dw10 hdi
Please include flywheel change options, if any.
Also I heard that some of the van cluitches were slightly meatier clutch than standard. Is this true?
Bearing in mind stage3. So 340ft/lb plus

cg are the most common, they work but quality is hit and miss. With your turbo I don't think you will see over 300 lbs ft, good hp but i don't think it will give the low down air, which is good news for the clutch

I'll be buying an xud cg clutch soon. Might be able to get a discount?
RE: Clutches.. - toseland - 08-06-2015
mine will be a while, as i said i will be pushing the old one apart first.

Over 300 lb/ft = goodbye gear box!

er... no
RE: Clutches.. - HDi--Power - 08-06-2015
Hes not right but hes not overly wrong either, plant it in 5th and you will strip the teeth clean off with much over 300lbs/ft, its happened many times on here, I'm on my second or third box :/
RE: Clutches.. - pugbug - 08-06-2015
Don't know of anyone here on .net been running over 300 lb/ft without box issues in the long run. Good for dyno runs, but that's box is not rated for them type of torque figures.
RE: Clutches.. - Ruan - 08-06-2015
No need to make the torque that high IMO - with a bigger turbo you should be able to inject further up the RPMs, 340lb.ft is just a recipe for damaging driveline components and causing wheelyspins everywhere. It's nice having that quantity of torque, but the reality is more of a nightmare, it does mean you have to restrict it - the chassis and driveline just can't cope.
I'd be trying to keep it below 310-320lb.ft to save stuff like that - That's my opinion anyway.
RE: Clutches.. - Poodle - 09-06-2015
As the others have said, this turbo shouldn't be torque-monster, which is one of the main reasons i specced it. Personally i'd suggest trying to find a second-hand unit from helix or sachs, or perhaps look into the uprated luk version someone mentioned recently. A lot of the van clutches are meant to be meatier and seem to hold more abuse, might be worth a go.
RE: Clutches.. - toseland - 09-06-2015
That's what I was thinking.. I am wondering if the hdi partner vans are beefier and/or have a stronger spring setup to accommodate for the increased load requirements with the van.!
Who would know?
RE: Clutches.. - Poodle - 09-06-2015
I believe it's just a more heavily sprung cover plate, i guess the sachs consumer info line might be able to help, got to be worth a shot. That said, i'd still be surprised if it could the abuse you're likely to give it...
