Hey guys, I now have in my possession the new clutch setup from VAST. This is not the first clutch I have purchased from them. So here are some pics of old vs new. I will throw this up in the A6 section because it gets more traffic, but it is also for you S4 guys obviously.



As most of you know, the old VAST clutches used the RS4 PP, well the new ones are completely designed in house, Andy agonized over every decision with regards to them, including what rivets to use. I think the outcome speaks for itself, the quality of the new PP is fantastic.

OLD

NEW

NEW


Note the differences in the old vs new kevlar clutch lining, the old kevlar disc in the pic came out of my stage 3 A6 after well over hundred 5k+ launches. It still held good power on launch, but started slipping under full boost at the top of 3rd and 4th



Note the 8k RPM balancing marks on the FW, the FW is also slightly modified to accept the new disc



We are going to be running the new stage 4 package in my single turbo 3L, the goal is to push the clutch and find out exactly where it slips, I am hoping to see at least 750whp with it, I will keep you all informed

Sweet stuff, but why would you buy a clutch knowing that you're going to slip it? I assume for testing?

When is this beast going to be running?

We hope to have it running in the next month or so, and yes, the clutch was given to me for testing purposes
