Nope. the clutch on these things is a very different design than most normal clutches. best I can do is $879. but considering that it will handle more than 100hp over stock and costs less than the spec crap I don't think it's that bad. if there is interest I may put a group buy together and save people some money, but noit until the testing phase is complete

What, exactly, does the $879 cover?

I'm pretty sure the SPEC clutch is about 1100 for all stages up to 3. If you could get a GB to save even more that would be perfect.

$879 is very fair. i was originally quoted a bit a over $700 for the oe from the dealer but i know you can get them for under $500. Group buy would be great tho! let me know when your ready to sell these babies! im in!

Probably about a month. I want the tester to get at least 1000 miles before I release them.

Will we have to replace the flywheel at the same time? Anyone have pricing on this?

Also, has any research been done on the clutch delay valve? I used to have a bimmer and due to the CDV it made shifts horrible, made the modification, made it a new machine. I am not certain there is one in the XF, but it sure feels like it. Here is some additional info from some bimmer guys. I have been told these are prevalent on Euro cars....

CDV

Dark, you still around? I knew at one time you had a feeler out to sell the coupe, just seeing if you were planning on still having these perf clutches done or if you had let it die. Thanks.
