ACT HD/Race Sprung 6 Pad Volkswagen EOS | Golf | GTI | Jetta | Passat | Audi A3 2006-2013 - VW7-HDG6

If you're looking to amp up your ride's performance, the Advanced Clutch HD/Race Sprung 6 Pad VW7-HDG6 kit is where it's at. This isn't just any clutch kit; it's got ACT's heavy-duty pressure plate that’s become a favorite among gearheads for a reason. The design is all about maximizing clamp load while minimizing deflection, which means you’re getting a clutch that lasts longer and performs better under pressure. And let’s be real, who doesn’t want that?

What’s cool is that every diaphragm goes through a four-stage heat-treating process. This isn’t just some marketing fluff; it really does enhance performance. Plus, the pressure plates are precision-stamped, ensuring they’re rigid and consistent—no flimsy parts here. The 6-pad, spring-centered race disc is another standout feature. It’s designed to dampen those torsional vibrations and can take a beating, which is crucial when you’re pushing your car hard.

Now, I won’t sugarcoat it—the engagement is a bit harsher with this setup, but that just means faster shifts. If you’ve got a beast of an engine, this 6-pad disc is your friend. It’s engineered for larger clutch sizes, which helps absorb more heat. So whether you're hitting the streets or the track, you can trust that this kit will handle the heat.
