Well that is good to know but too late for me to take advantage of.
My clutch kit cost $365.

When it comes to clutches I don't have much knowledge, the car is used
strictly on the street so I decided to go with the stock replacement
clutch.

Now I need to learn about the 1.8 WG spring and why it builds more
power faster than the stock spring. Anyone know anything about it?

The people on audiworld seem to love it!



Thanks
Chris
