    Best clutch for 400hp+ m20 turbo?

    So I'm finishing up ordering all my parts for my m20 turbo build, but I would like some input on the best clutch for making over 400hp. This car will be daily driven.

    I've been reading up on the Spec Stage III+, TCD stage 2, or getting a clutch setup from an S52b32 OEM BMW e36 1996-1999 M3.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Check out vac Motorsports, they sell a few different clutch kits that look pretty good. That's what I'm planing in using at least.

      Just checked it out. I noticed they're selling ClutchMasters. Any idea how those are?

        if its daily driven a OEM BMW clutch is much suggested.

        you could use the 335i twin turbo clutch; they are very street Daily OK as designed by BMW; dyno proven to 450rwhp+ by e92 guys

        for a M20+g260 5 speed and 335i twin turbo clutch use only oem bmw parts:

        330i e46 dual mass flywheel
        330i e46 friction disc or e36 m3 s52b32 friction disc
        335i/135i/535i pressure plate from e92/e82/e60

        I used a 335i turbo clutchset with my Non-Turbo NA M20 and it was fine around town for every day use. Bolted right up to my 1985 M20 with the correct flywheel and friction disc for the 6mt setup I used.

        OBD1 M54/M52TU swap as a M50b25

          What would you say the total price would be for a setup like that?

            no finite idea; try your local parts counter/bmw breaker etc.


            I just know that its good and daily drive-able through san francisco hilly traffic.

            The s52b32 usa 96-99 m3 clutch set is also great for grocery use and is commonly used to about 350rwhp in turbocharged cars.
            The entire e36m 3.2 flywheel/clutch setup will bolt to a m20 and g260 and is good enough to daily through 3rd world country traffic
