    for the few with turbo m30's.

    Angus as you know the M30 is a torque monster under boost. I would look for a clutch that would hold at least 600ftlb.
    I run a tilton 7 1/4" twin metallic discs, not street friendly at all.

        I used an upgraded m5 pressure plate (1800lbs clamping) and a kevlar segmented disk. It slipped under boost as it got hot. Pulling it out to see if it was "operator error" or inadequate equipment. I'm going with an organic m5 disc to keep me on the road while I figure this out.

        My original clutch held better than the kevlar one did.

          Was a problem with the disc itself. Bringing it back to manufacturer to take a look.

          In meantime, M5 disc seems to be holding - although I haven't really dialed up the boost yet while it beds in.

            I'd go for Sachs -765 for E34 M5 3.6. It holds 700Nm with organic disc and +1000Nm with sinter discs.

              The modified pressure plate and organic disc held full boost at track.
