Very nice. Nice house you've got as well [emoji6], especially the garage Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
I’m thinking about hybrid turbo stage 2 incl 630cc deka injectors and uprated clutch!? So the turbo can be fully opened :-) Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk
Hello Davy, Good to see you on here! Love how yours sits and looks on those wheels, Properly aggressive! How much camber do you run again?
Really does look good. Was at the 'ring over the weekend, so quite a few on 17" wheels. They just look so aggressive!
Spoke a few times on the RS pages on Facebook mate, and i’m friends with you on Facebook too. Should recognise my car in my avatar
I know I know ;-) thats why I wrote ‘ who we have here ‘ :-p I was allready registered like a month or so, but haven’t got the time to post something here :-)
Why are you considering an uprated clutch, as far as I know the rods will bend long before the clutch gives in?
Because I bought a hybrid turbo and oem clutch can handle only till 540nm :-) So the turbo can’t be tuned fully opened
That realy depends on the kind of hybrid you’ve got. A 20T will get you around 500-550nm so standard clutch is fine.
Are You sure? Normaly it’s a 20t fir 360-380hp. When turbo is tuned full open , the clutch will slip i think... I know somebody with 363hp and 521nm , mapped just under the clutch max. 378 Hp and 560nm was to much :-) Thats Why I was thinking about an uprated clutch plate
I’m 100% positive. I made 382/530 or something, not much more to be made with a 20T. That’s with 2.05 bar of boost, maxed out. You need a bigger hybrid for more power.
No problems at all with mine, even after a few launch control clutch drops. Have not driven it on track yet since it's currently being upgraded again.
Ok but that are launch controls... Ok that is also not do verry good for the clutch, But when she can handle that... Is good news :-) But race track temperature is longer...
Personally I wouldn't go over 520/530Nm on the stock rods, know of a few Dutch ones that went bang above that.. Clutch will be fine, as the pistons.
Track driving really doesnt put that much strain on the clutch, Your normally well out of peak torque in them on track. I wouldn't push it much over 520nm either tbf, Thats what i run and i wouldn't risk any more, Mainly to preserve the rods more than clutch.
noticed you've fitted drive shaft spacer, yet your ride height doesn't look exceptionally low, did you feel needed it as it can be detrimental if gaps too small for the spacer
The spacer is needed when you lower the car more than 30-35mm :-) So the driveshaft don’t pop out ;-). Also driving on -2.47 camber ;-)
you realise the more camber you introduce the more it pushes the drive shaft back into the gear box, your -2.47° is quite strong and a 30mm drop is not a lot, thats why asked if really needed spacer
I know, but it’s how the driveshaft ‘sits’ under that angle ;-) Iff You don’t do it , you’ll see Iff you drive sporty, ot will pop out ;-)
