The Clutch Masters FX350 Heavy-Duty Clutch Kit is engineered for high-performance street and racing applications, providing an impressive 110% increase in holding capacity. Designed specifically for the Volkswagen Jetta models from 2010 to 2018, this clutch kit features the innovative Fiber-Tough friction material combined with a Hi-Leverage, heavy-duty pressure plate, offering a reliable upgrade for highly tuned, turbocharged, supercharged, or nitrous-injected engines. This setup is ideal for enthusiasts seeking a balance between durability and aggressive engagement, making it suitable for street driving as well as weekend track days. The FX350 system ensures enhanced clamping force and torque capacity, making it a formidable choice for vehicles pushing beyond stock performance levels while maintaining drivability and longevity.
This clutch kit includes a conversion kit and requires the use of a specific flywheel for proper installation. The steel flywheel enhances heat dissipation and provides a more stable engagement, especially under high-stress conditions common in racing or heavily modified engines. Its design aims to deliver aggressive engagement with some chatter, providing feedback for performance driving while maintaining a robust, heavy-duty build that withstands rigorous use. The kit is tailored for applications with cylinder head work, cams, medium-boost turbo setups, or up to 100 horsepower of nitrous oxide, offering a versatile upgrade for serious enthusiasts.
Our shop experience specializing in heavy-duty clutch systems since 1985 underscores the importance of proper installation procedures. During installation, carefully check the mechanical linkage, ensure correct pushrod alignment, and verify a straight, unbinding travel path to prevent premature wear or binding on the internal components. Proper setup is crucial for maximizing the clutch’s lifespan and ensuring consistent performance under demanding conditions.
