USP Motorsports is pleased to present South Bend / DXD clutches for your B5/B6 A4 1.8T. DXD clutches are developed and tested by DXD across many different friction products, pressure plate loads and flywheel designs with one goal in mind, to create clutch systems not only with perfect balance and symmetry but also to perfectly complement engine modifications without compromise in reliability, drivability or enjoyment.
The success of the development efforts has produced a performance clutch product line of the highest quality and performance available for Porsche, Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, DXD Racing clutches.
Each clutch system is specially matched to specific driving styles, uses and power levels to insure the needs of each client are accomplished. Often times, a compromise between drivability and pedal feel must be made to achieve power handling. If you are drag racing you will have different requirements for clutch operation than someone who wishes to participate in daily spirited driving or endurance racing.
The DXD Racing Stage 1 Clutch Upgrade is a perfect OEM replacement clutch that is both affordable and upgrade in life of operation over a standard OEM clutch. We recommend the Stage 1 Clutch to anyone who has chosen APR’s Stage 1 ECU Upgrade and needs to replace the OEM clutch due to wear or a desire to drive more spiritedly.
