2018+ Clutch

[Lightning Struck]

Currently staying N/A, but getting sick of the high RPM lockouts and have heard this is primarily due to the stock twin disk clutch. So what's out there? Is my only real choice an RXT? Looking for opinions and/or solutions to this.

Thanks!

Centerforce and Mantic are also great options. It just depends on what your budget is, do you track the car at all?

Haven't had it on a track at all. Just have had issues messing around on the street with lockouts above 7k. However I'd love to throw a whipple on it at some point, but have no clue when that would be

Mcleod makes an RST kit for our cars now. I'm not sure what the max power would be on this or if the Whipple might be too much for it.

Related question: Do you guys have the 'grind' above 5K rpm when shifting normally? Suposedly if you release the clutch completely before applying any gas, it doesn't do it, but who wants to drive like that spiritedly. Reportedly it's also a 'twin disc issue', but wanted to ask here if that's the case. Hopefully not. I still don't know if my car has that 'feature' because I'm in break-in, hence my asking. But also want to know if it's 'all the MT-82s make it', or just for a lucky few . Thanks gang.

My car makes that noise too but haven't had any other issues. Personally, I think the noise is caused by the dual mass flywheel. You can see the design is a bit different from pre 2018 cars in this thread.

Do the Mcleod RST and rebuilt to RXT spec when/if you roast it with that future Whipple.

We'll take care of you. Message any of us if interested.

Is the streetability between the RXT and RST that noticeable?

No. Both are pretty high engagement points and RXT is only a bit more heavy.

Are both spring-assisted? The MT-82 needs the springs, for what I've read. And the shifting issues seem to be due to the clutch, not the tranny, correct? Although the tranny has some weak links, like badly welded forks, and several plastic parts, that when replaced, make the tranny a lot stronger, reportedly. Hope not to have any issues with it .
