Can S5 clutch hydraulics handle XT clut

Is the stock S5 TII hydraulic clutch system strong enough to handle ACT's XT extreme pressure plate? Rafk

i would say get the braided clutch line and get a new master and slave and you should be good to go


unless your slave and master are in great shape. because that braided line may put more pressure on your old components. but they shouldn't have a problem even how your set up now.

None of the stock stuff seems to deal with the Extreme PP well. Even the clutch fork pivot ball breaks.

The Heavy Duty pressure plate works fine unless you plan on making 600+HP
