Default Anyone have any experience with the Vastperformance clutch??

I want to go with soemthingstronger than RS4 incase I go with bigger turbos than KO4's. Any other suggestions? Trying not to spend more than $700 on parts, but looks like I may have to if I don't go with this one.

Default I have the Vast RS4 w/Kevlar, and I love it. Stock like driveability, holds well(i'm only...

stage 3-). I paid $690. Money well spent IMO. The only downside is the long break-in period.

Default I love mine. Changed from RS4 to VAST (which in my case, is RS4 PP and VAST kevlar disc)....

I made the change because I had my LWFW pulled out and went back to a stock resurfaced flywheel.

It was the perfect time to change discs since Mike was already in there.

I love the kevler disc - very nice and grabby.

Jason - how's the pedal feel? I'm going with the VAST clutch and was wondering how stock it is.

Default pedal feel is great. My clutch has always been a little heavy - feels the same as stock.....

same as the RS4 disc - I notice no difference.

Just a bit grabbier on engagement.

I've driven Spec, RS4, stock, some $$$$ MTM wonder-clutch, and the VAST. VAST is by far my choice.
