Hi folks

the clutch on my m50 turbo cant take the torque. so i have a m20 flywheel that is in the process of getting lightened and i have ordered a sachs 618 clutch cover.

should i be saving for an uprated plate too or will a m20 325i one be ok due to the higher clamping force of the uprated cover?

thanks :D

Depends on the torque .

but most people see over 500nm clamping from a stock disc and 618 pressure plate
With great challenges comes great engineering.
