Default New clutch with higher boost???

some guy i was talking to today said that before i put my car on 20psi(with the chip im getting)....i will need to get a new/performance clutch kit, cuz the stock one wont hold up...

is this true? if so, what brand should i go with that is good quality and affordable? oh and how hard is it to put a new clutch in my quattro?

a K04 will be pushing the limits of the stock clutch too, and the PC-16 file will probably burn it up pretty quickly.

how many miles have you put on your car since you went K04 brian? how's your clutch holding up?

k04- 105,000 miles
still on stock clutch

clutch is officially toast right now. but that is only due to me letting my friend drive my car while i was drunk. he brought it back and my clutch was literally smoking. clutch started slipping after that and has been for the last year and finally jus crapped out on me last night

It seems whoever you are getting your information from, outside of www.audiforums.com, has no idea what their talking about. Stop listening to that jackass and start listening to us! If you read the stickies, you would know these things. Why dont you read the stickies?
