1.6TD clutch
« on: May 30, 2006, 08:12:35 pm »
Here is my set-up on my '92 Jetta:

MF 1.6TD stock
14 PSI (K24)
Intercooler
Fuel screw turned up (black smoke behing me)

My stock clutch has 80,000km. When I hold it @WOT in 4th ou 5th speed, the clutch slips.

Is this set-up too much for the stock clutch?

I have the same performances as my AAZ into MK2 with an intercooler @10 PSI with smoke.

How much torque does the stock clutch can hold?

Thanks

i ran a centerforce dual friction clutch for a while, it was good  or get crazy and get a 4 puck with a sprung center,and a 16v pressure plate (convert to 210mm)
 i smoked 2 stock clutches  in 2 years before i upgraded,same thing they did too,slipping  in 4th-5th
 i wouldnt say i smoked them,they just wouldnt hold after time
Throttle cables ftw

I have a 6 pucks on my 1.9TD and U think I will wait because I want to put a AAZ into my 2nd MK2  :twisted:

This is the RedRotor's labo (his old MK2, he sold it to me)

Im glad you asked that, I keep forgetting!
I have a flywheel from a 1.9D polo (1Y) and I was hoping to use that, But I didn't know if the clutches were interchangeable or if I could uprate the stock one for a bigger/stiffer one.
