C30 D5 stage 1 replacement clutch/dmf?

Jt1985 · Nov 12th, 2021, 21:46

Could someone give some advice, clutch and dmf is to be replaced but I can’t get a definitive answer on what set up I need. The car is stage 1 233bhp and 550nm.

would a stock clutch and dmf do or would I need to get an upgraded one

thanks in advance

I would suggest that it will depend more on your intended use rather than anything else.

Track use..... Uprated clutch would be of benefit.
Mainly driving around town......... Standard all the way.

With 550nm I'd be looking to put the strongest possible in it. Sadly, owning a T5 I can't comment on what that is for the diesels.

I'm assuming the S60R/Focus RS setup is different on the diesels from the T5's, something to look into as that's what most high power T5's put in.

@funkymelon
I can’t find references to any set up for the D5 when mapped, Indy garage I’m taking her to next week says the car will be fine with Luk clutch and dmf. No one seems to have definitive answer
