Aftermarket Clutch Life

90 ST · 12-17-2014, 07:11 PM

Not that it matters now, as you already got a clutch, but yes the aftermarket one should give you close to the same mileage, depending on driving habit changes. I found with my ACT/Stillen set up the clutch aside from being way more firm, grabbed harder, I don't think the OE one will take much more power for any length of time. The only reason I had to pull mine out was I needed my car back on the road and didn't have time to wait for a aftermarket CSC, so i'm on my second OE clutch set up.

Most people that have aftermarket clutches are boosted or race a lot and there is no apples to apples comparison. Likely most of those that have switched to aftermarket setups did so before the stock clutch went out. If your driving style is the same you should get comparable life from aftermarket.

There is more then you think well over 100k...
