Stock clutch or RS4. I know I know.... STFA , shut up
 
I am going to keep my car close to stock and I have an opportunity to have the clutch replaced with no labor charges as Audi is going to be replacing my flywheel anyways under warranty work. I don't beat on the car TOO bad, and I'm not going to beef it up to a million horsepower, so do you think I should still go to the RS4 clutch?

I see the stock S4 clutch all over for around $430, I think the RS4 kit goes for like $490 or something? Anyone know of a better deal on either clutch? Thanks guys!

RS4, definitely. Stock-like feel and it holds back my 500+lbft with no issues.

If you're never going to race the car (Drag, or track), and...
 
you're only ever going to see maybe stage 2 (exhaust & ECU), the S4 clutch should be fine.

However, if it's out, you might as well throw in the better clutch if the parts cost is only 50-100 bucks...

It never hurts!

I like mine. (RS4)
 
got mine from ECS tuning, then the dealer dinged me $600 for a new flywheel.

just go RS4

definately rs4
 
offers very similar drivability to stock, yet it has, in my opinion, i nice pop and good engagement.

i've been at the strip on my rs4 clutch 4 times, with near no slippage.

Do like I did

Just kidding. If you never plan on upgrading hp, stick with stock clutch for slightly less pedal effort.
