what is your clutch disk? Observations?
Since I have RS4 clutch alredy, don't want to go with something expensive / fancy. Just something reliable to hold 440 hp.

I have some crazy disc that Piggie gave me, very nice....
The only thing I don't love about it is the car will shudder upon engagement if you don't give it enough gas. It's not like the stock setup where you can just let the clutch out without any gas and the car will creep forward effortlessly. Once you get a hang of it, it's not bad. I still don't always get it right, but then again I'm dumb. ;p

i just had an email disscution couple days aga with "ko4north " about that ..
he has the rs4 pressure plate with a spec friction disk (stg2) and he's very happy with that , he strongly recommended me to go same way .. he said that on the **race track** a full ko4 (AWE) powered s4 (450hp and lbs tq or so ) will have the clutch sliping after a while. for street use it wshould be fine tho' , i doubt that AWE would put that clutch on an S4 if it could not hold up.
