07 turbo 6 speed clutch options

did some research on the clutch options for this car. I've already did most the pricing to do a dual mass clutch replacement.

My question is, anyone do a single mass clutch conversion on these? if so options? do see a whole lot.

I have no problem with do the clutch job. I guess 50k later, I don't want to be here again. car has 80 now, which for a manual I think is too soon.

I've got over 50K on my OS Giken clutch / flywheel and it's still got plenty of life left in it. It's been handling between 280 and 360 WHP since 2011. Costs more, but well worth it!

For daily use reliability and smoothness I would go with the original.

But while your at it do the control arm bushings since you'll have the subframe out and it will be easy and the powerflex will never wear out again.

And ideally budget in the LSD as that will be a huge improvement on getting the power you make to the ground
