What clutches are you guys using if your running more than 150 bhp?

Are you on standard or race clutches?

I need to buy another clutch for my engine build ASAP

Standard Williams one from Renault would be fine.

Why are you using the megane fly tho ? Are you running megane management ? The 16v/williams flywheel will mate up with the 440/GTT clutch

No using brand new management!!!

Think it may be something to do with a sensor or something!!!! Using megane head ready for ITB's

No it's not.

I had to ditch my megane flywheel as it wasn't the same as my willy.

Also, after my experience with the GTT uprated heavy duty clutch from GSF (60quid jobby), I wouldn't be putting that on again in future.

It's a nice clutch feeling clutch, but as soon as the car gets hot, fully pressing the clutch peddle down don't disengage the clutch enough, so you get a nice crunch, and the car starts rolling.
