b5 s4s!!
hey guys i drove a b5 s4 manual and loved the strength of the pressure plate, and the feel of the clutch overall, my 3.0 6 speed clutch is feather light and i hate it, how many foot pounds are your pressure plates rated at stock? (correct me if im wrong, i think they measure the strength in foot pounds...)[/align]

RE: b5 s4s!!
I'm not sure what the exact rating is, but I too absolutely fell in love with the clutch pedal feel when I first test drove my car. It just felt like it could take anything I could throw at it, and happily at that!
It was more aggressive than I was expecting, and I like it.
As far as actual clamping power/torque capacity, I would tend to guess it could safely hold at least 300 ft/lbs, perhaps more depending on how you drive - I believe many people have chipped S4's (and more than chipped)and are still on the stock clutch.
