Better price than I imagined and great service from Alex.
I can get back to looking at bigger turbos now... I mean big brakes, honest.

You'll have to let us know how that goes mate as I may have to go down this route too.
PS - where are you getting it fitted from? Also what sort of price would I be looking at as I'm gonna need to start saving!

I'm getting it done at Statller in Sheffield hopefully mate (I'm yet to book in!). Used them before and they're genuine specialists. Hurdy's old mk6 R was built there.
Will PM you now regarding parts cost.

Just went to order a Helix clutch from Awesome and they are having trouble with their cataloging and have recommended a Sachs Performance one. Does anyone have any experience with this brand? It's around £100 more, which is making my pockets feel even more inadequate than they already were

It'll do the job but it's heavier than the Helix on the pedal apparently.

I've got the Sachs racing clutch and it is heavier than stock, I've never used a helix clutch so cannot compare. It's been on my Ed30 for 50k miles and touchwood it's still going strong. A new DMF was installed at the same time as the Sachs clutch. I like the heaviness to be honest but Im glad I don't sit in traffic very often.

Mate, email Alex. He's got Helix kits in stock. Got mine very quick at a good price last week.
