Performance Clutch Upgrade

[NJRoadkill]

Any companies developing a performance clutch upgrade for the M7?
Monster comes to mind, had them in other cars,

Long term I’m going to end up smoking it. I’ve already smelled it in a few situations. That $3k smell

My guess is a mustang clutch would be the same??

Unlikely since it’s not the same transmission.

Not sure this is something worth making. I feel like the stock clutch should easily be able to hold any power you have. Even with a tuner, you aren’t that far above stock numbers to need a “performance” clutch.

Thanks! Call it what you want, HD clutch. If I’m smelling it under certain load circumstances (yes driver input/error is a consideration for sure) then it’s likely a part that could use heavier springs for example. Or a better material for the pressure plate. Etc...

Just curious. I know it’s only a matter of time before the clutch will need to be replaced and I’m using mine under heavy load constantly which only shortens life span. Not something I would ever expect Ford to cover under warranty even under optimum use.

I wouldn't think so since it's not even the same gear count.

I think the Bronkbuster guys were testing one a while back.

Heard someone was developing one. Cant say ill burn mine up soon, but a bit less newbie friendly and a pinch more firm and precise would be nice

Hopefully centerforce comes out with something

Ditto. I still want something Daily and city friendly, but I don't need something beginner level either

Also, will they release a new flywheel, and will it be heavier or lighter?

All good, heard Downpipes should be in the works for the 2.3 in Jan btw, or the beginning of next year
