Had news on my car from Adam today, apparently the clutch is sh@gged. Question is, do I replace it with standard or go for the Exedy stage 1? I'm not planning massive power upgrades but it would be nice to have a bit of leeway with the clutch.
Scoobyworld reckon the stage 1 is good for a 40% power increase, which by my man maths is 125bhp give or take.
Advice please

I know this, but Adam has gone home and I only just thought of having the stage 1

Standard Exedy clutch going in. All the guys who recommended Adam were spot on, he's been fantastic.
Fingers crossed I don't need a new flywheel now!

I think the Exedy/Daikin warranty requires a flywheel skim. Had mine done by local eng. co. Then needs new dowels too.
