88 na clutch

What clutch would you recommend going with for my na withe the plan of adding a turbo down the road. My clutch is currently starting to slip and needs replaced. All I hear is bad about spec so I was looking at the stage 2 centerforce or the dual friction. What else is there sub 400 bucks anymore that will leave me room to grow?

I once ran an ACT Street/Strip clutch in my N/A S5. This ACT clutch provides about 40% more clamping force. It took a lot more effort to press the clutch pedal. I'd also recommend replacing your clutch slave hose with a stainless steel reinforced hose because to oem rubber hose will burst due to the increased pressure.

You can probably find it for less if you shop around. Good luck!

I’ve been running an Exedy Stage 1 NA clutch and matching pressure plate on my NA 6 port turbo with around 300hp to the wheels. It’s been working out fantastic.

Almost looks like it's bullet proof!

Thank you I'm going to go act and will be replacing the master and slave with braided line. To cheap not too. Just going to wait till I get the rb exhaust in my hands so I can do both at the same time.
