I've had a Helix clutch fitted to my Eddy for about a month now and it feels great, a big improvement over the OEM one and more than capable of Stage 2+.

Oh and stick with the OEM DMF if its a road car I were you.

I second the above.

Helix clutch and DMF in my GTI  and its great, loads better that OEM and only slightly stiffer, loads better bite.  :happy2:
