Stage 3 Endurance Clutch Kit

The South Bend Stage 3 Endurance Clutch Kit is a performance upgrade designed for vehicles with horsepower modifications. This kit includes a heavy-duty pressure plate with an increased clamp load that offers enhanced strength without significantly increasing pedal pressure. The organic clutch disc is constructed with a high metal content, doubling the coefficient of friction compared to stock linings and providing rotational strength up to a 12,000 RPM burst point. Despite its performance capabilities, this clutch system aims to maintain a stock-like pedal feel, making it suitable for daily driving as well as demanding performance use. It is rated for 425 ft/lbs of torque and comes with a high-performance flywheel. The kit includes a single-disc design and an alignment tool for installation. This clutch kit is compatible with various 1.8T models, including the B7 Passat, MK6 Jetta, and MK7 Golf/Sportwagen (MQB platforms) with 1.8T or 1.4T engines. Specific fitment applies to models like the 15+ Golf 1.8T, 14+ Jetta 1.8T, and 14-15 Passat 1.8T.
