Standalones start about £1k, a piggybank is about £250 upwards.

But they get you 50bhp, which isn't a lot for 2k.

On a 300 you mean?
Not really, we bought our 300 for 2500...

also when it comes to a clutch change would i be better of getting a fast road clutch and solid flywheel at the same time like this set here

with the ecu i think the ultimate is the one to go for that looks like the blue

i know nothing about clutches that's mechanical i dont do mechanical lol

Helix Organic uprated clutch kits are pretty good mate, not sure if you'll need a new fly wheel?


Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 18-12-2018

cheers Rabs I'll have a look for the ultimate

@bandit its only cause ive heard about solid flywheels being better than the standard and if i change the clutch it seems a good opertunity to change the fly at the same time

well I still have a organic fast road clutch knocking about not doing anything - open to offers.

The Fly wheel can be welded up apparently, then skimmed to create a solid one, it will reduce the clutch judder associated with dual mass flys. I think it was Ormi who said it can be done - and way cheaper then a new fly wheel.
