A mate of mine has a stage 2+ cupra R. Head to head it's stalemate and even feels the same when i drive it compared to my RS.

Seen this today, the wheels, OMG the wheels! :drool:

Anyway I am sorting a GB with Alex on the BDM Intake so keep your eyes peeled in the GB section this weekend.

Very nice quality bit of kit and a real alternative to ITG/Forge.

A reminder:

vRSAlex:
Update time:

Picked up a clutch from Helix.  Single mass lightened flywheel, 6 paddle drive plate and high torque cover.  Now I can get it fitted with the diff next week.







This has also come back too:



I wont be fitting it until ive done the rods.

How come you went for the Helix + SMF Alex over the seemingly more popular Sachs + DMF combo?

I think its only more popular as not as many people have heard of Helix.  I only go for products that I trust from experience of fitting and using.  I hate the feel of Sachs clutches with their heavy pedal and strange bite points.  The dual mass is very heavy and doesnt help with fast reving and turbo spool up etc, plus they fail which you dont have to worry about with the single mass flywheels.

Ive fitted loads of Helix clutches over the years and they always perform very well with the pedal feeling much like standard, even with the paddle version.  Always had great feed back from customers too.
