Suitable for stock and modified 2.0T FSI applications, the system is engineered to transfer power reliably during spirited acceleration while maintaining the progressive engagement characteristics of an organic clutch disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sprung clutch disc uses a woven organic friction compound with brass reinforcement and alloy backing materials to provide a balance of grip, heat resistance, and drivability. Its sprung-hub design helps absorb drivetrain shock during engagement, making it a practical choice for performance-oriented street vehicles that also see occasional track use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 4130 chromoly steel single-mass flywheel replaces the compatible factory flywheel assembly. The steel construction provides a durable friction surface while the single-mass design offers a more direct mechanical connection between the engine and transmission. Some additional drivetrain noise or gear chatter may occur compared with the factory dual-mass flywheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDKM rates this Stage 2 MB system for up to 440 lb-ft of torque, with up to an 80% increase in torque capacity compared with applicable factory clutch configurations.

Confirm the engine and transmission configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How much torque can the DKM Stage 2 MB Clutch Kit handle?\u003cbr\u003eA: DKM rates the kit for up to 440 lb-ft of torque. Actual clutch performance depends on installation, vehicle configuration, driving conditions, and clutch break-in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Does the DKM Stage 2 Clutch Kit include a flywheel?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. The kit includes a 4130 chromoly steel single-mass flywheel designed for the compatible application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What components are included in the kit?\u003cbr\u003eA: The core package includes a performance pressure plate, sprung organic clutch disc, steel flywheel, and alignment tool. Additional bearings or related components are supplied when applicable to the specific kit configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Is this clutch suitable for daily driving?\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. The sprung organic disc is designed to provide progressive engagement suitable for performance-oriented street driving, although pedal effort and engagement may differ from the factory clutch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can this clutch be used for track driving?\u003cbr\u003eA: DKM recommends the MB series for aggressive street use and moderate track use. More demanding motorsport applications may require a different clutch configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What is the difference between a single-mass and dual-mass flywheel?\u003cbr\u003eA: A single-mass flywheel uses a more direct mechanical design, while a dual-mass flywheel incorporates additional vibration-damping components. Switching to a single-mass flywheel can increase drivetrain noise or gear chatter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Is a break-in period required?\u003cbr\u003eA: Follow DKM's specified clutch break-in procedure before aggressive acceleration or track use. Proper bedding helps establish consistent engagement and clutch performance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DKM Clutch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51479184146601,"sku":"MB-034-062","price":999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/6673\/files\/DKM_Clutch_Kit_for_VW.jpg?v=1793484065","url":"https:\/\/www.fastuningstore.com\/products\/dkm-stage-2-mb-clutch-kit-mk5-gti-mk6-golf-r","provider":"FAS Tuning ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
