cheapest i would say would be a HELIX uprated clutch on your duel mass flywheel approx £500..... most reliable i would say is the single mass flywheel and uprated clutch at £900! which i have just done

When it comes to clutches generally the cheapest are NOT the most reliable.
Invest in quality parts.

Yes Alex is a good guy.

Just for reference, I've booked in my car to a local VW specialist to have my clutch replaced with a Sachs SRE kit - been quoted £1000 - £1100 supply and fit.  Clutch only, leaving factory flywheel as I don't want to suffer the vibration/noise issues associated with a single-mass flywheel.

£1100 for just a clutch fitted, holy sh$t!

Mate get a standard Luk or Sachs of ebay, take it round to your local indi and have them fit it, £500 max! My local indi fitted a new clutch my CTR for £70, the clutch cost £120 of ebay, no issues.

Surly you dont need a race clutch for a stage 1? Stage 2 onwards yeah.

As its a stage 1 mapped car and is already slipping I would replace with a helix clutch and new dual mass flywheel , I spoke to Alex yesterday and he went through my requirements and the above came up best... Price was £780 shipped plus fitting

If its a MK6 with the TSi engine then they have an 8 bolt crank.  The TFSi has a 6 bolt crank so the flywheel wont cross over.
