100Q vs V8 clutch holding torque

[Denis]

I dont understand whey the machiniste where they want me to buy his disk
with different material pads. If it slip easily on one side, it does not
matter if the other side is grip very well,, so it ll slip first on the side
wich the pads have less grip.

So It absolutly need same pads type material on BOTH side. My opinion

He explain to me a good grip ll make a drag type clutch  , wich grip fast
and  not streetable and the streetable appl ll make my clutch slip with std
pads. So he told me , one side hight grip pads, and the other side less grip
pads(std) to make an average  grip disk ......mmmmmm well, i m not Doc on
disk pads but for me it s not it all an average ;-)

The pressure plate does skeeze the disk to get good grip. The one i need for
V8 Audi application is a S2 or 20V T pp (same ) BUT it s impossible find
them here and i have to buy a complete new S2 clutch, only to get the
pressure plate grrrrrrrrr. I have 100Q pressure plate but l not grip
enought....

Is it possible to moood the 100Q pp ?
