Clutch replacement r53

I need a new clutch for my 2005 r53. Should I go valeo? I have only exhaust and HAI so I think it can handle the power. Plus I want the SMF. any opinions?

Yes you should. I installed that kit last year and it is great. I just bought a new to me r53 and the stock clutch isn't as good as the valeo

Valeo single mass conversion is the best option for someone who isn't looking for a race clutch, they hold power fine, stand up to occasional track days, and are priced right.

We have them in stock and ready to ship.

Valeo Clutch
