2005 Volkswagen Passat 1.8T – Clutch Masters FX400 Street and Racing Heavy-Duty Clutch Kit with Ceramic Puck Design – Premium Replacement

The Clutch Masters FX400 Heavy-Duty Clutch Kit offers a 170% increase in holding capacity, making it an ideal choice for high-performance street driving and drag racing applications. This system features the Power Plus I, Hi-Leverage, heavy-duty pressure plate paired with a custom, sprung ceramic disc designed for durability and rapid heat dissipation. The ceramic puck configuration is available in 6 or 8-puck setups, with the 6-puck providing a more aggressive engagement suitable for demanding driving conditions, while the 8-puck offers a slightly milder engagement, enhancing street usability. The sprung hub design allows for moderate dampening, reducing shock loads during high-torque events and contributing to a smoother operation on the street. This clutch system is engineered for long service life, maximum holding capacity, and consistent performance under extreme conditions. It is designed specifically for use with Clutch Masters flywheels and is not compatible with OEM flywheels, ensuring optimal fitment and performance. Proper installation requires attention to mechanical linkage and precise pushrod alignment to prevent premature wear or binding of internal components. Our shop experience specializing in heavy-duty drivetrain components since 1985 emphasizes the importance of verifying the application and system specifications before installation to ensure maximum reliability and operational efficiency.
