Remap advice needed!

Im going to be taking the car down to rtech in the coming weeks for a stage 2+ remap
Probably a stupid suggestion but I was wondering if i could get away for a little while on the standard clutch.
Wonder how long it would last for with 350lb of torque!
Inevitably what clutch kit would you recommend on a budget that could cope with the added grunt
Cheers

If your guna be using all the torque/power (which you will want to) it's not going to last very long at all, if you got the cash, get a decent clutch put it her

I've heard the helix clutch set up is one of the best and the clutch pedal is a lot more firm / harder

You'll need an uprated clutch with a R-Tech stage 2+ map, trust me.
As mentioned, contact Alex at AKSTuning about the Uprated Organic Helix clutch and get a new OEM DMF too while your at it.

Smf will rev more lively
But will be noisy and only necessary for bigger power applications or a car what sees alot of abuse
