RTS Performance Twin-Friction Clutch Kit Audi Seat Skoda MQB 1.8TSI EA888 Gen3
RTS unique “Twin Friction” (drive plate) has been
developed using a unique flywheel side friction material whilst adopting
a segmented pressure plate face.. The aramid friction exhibits 50% less
wear than a conventional drive plate friction material.
This
material also reduces the effects of fade. Fade is the decline in the
clutch system’s ability to transmit torque as operating temperatures
increases. These features in combination with the previously mentioned
micro-structure of spheroidal casting and ER2 technology allows the
clutch kit to dissipate heat far more effectively, allowing the clutch
to run cooler for longer.
RTS kit
has been designed with a higher clamp load enabling the clutch system to
transmit 60% more torque over the standard clutch kit and is suitable
for every day driving, fast road and track/circuit racing whilst
maintaining user-friendly driving experience.
RTS
– RTSTF-0018 has been designed and manufactured to significantly exceed
the original clutch system whilst also maintaining OE pedal effort,
thus delivering a torque capacity of 395 lbs/ft of torque.
We recommend fitting a new slave cylinder when changing the clutch.

- Audi A3 (8V)
