What’s a good clutch to upgrade too & do I need to get the full upgrade kit or can I just upgrade the clutch

I personally use the Sachs SRE Clutch. Feels a lot better than the stock spongy clutch and it can hold stage 2 power. You have a choice between the 4 puck disc or the full faced disc. The 4 puck will hold more power. I highly recommend changing out your flywheel too.

I got my clutch kit and dual mass flywheel from Darkside Developments for about $1100. It comes with the throwout bearing and hardware as well.

You mind throwing a link for your clutch kit?

I have the same kit. Darkside sell their clutch kits through their sister company, Clutchstop.co.uk

I got my OEM Sachs DMF from autodoc.co.uk for £250

Yup, that's the one. I got the Sachs DMF from Darkside.

I'm enjoying it without crackles for the time being, but I'll probably switch back once my launch control gets sent over. I have to be obnoxious at the drag strip this weekend of course

Ended up cooking a coil on the s2 OTS map shortly after you posted lol. Grabbed some R8's and some new NGK's, running smoother than ever and just put in my Stratified order

Please don't... Res delete sounds like a tractor with aids at low RPM then a riced out b16 civic up top. I instantly welded the res back in hahaha

I don't think my crackles are very loud. Is it because my exhaust is catless?

Maybe I should go in for a hearing test.

sterkrazzy · 10-09-2017, 12:42 PM

Catless here too and they can be pretty loud. If I'm under 3k they're not very loud. I can hear them as low as 2200 rpms, but its very faint. If I try to get pops at 4-5k after having high boost they're pretty damn loud. Sometimes I get the loud pops around 3-3.2k too though.l
