We are happy to be able to offer you a BFI line in clutches. These Lightweight Flywheel and Clutch Kits are offered in 5 different stages, to meet a variety of applications. Below we have outlined and simplified what each kit includes to give you and idea of just which kit is right for you.





LIGHTWEIGHT FLYWHEELS:
Our Ultra Lightweight Flywheels are made from 4140 forged steel and tip the scales at only 18.85 lbs. These are superior in strength and far lighter than cast versions allowing you to free up more horsepower and rev faster than with your sluggish factory parts. Included in every kit.

STAGE 1 & 2:
Both full faced, steel back, brass plus sprung discs. Stage 1 includes a 1900 lb pressure plate, good for a max torque of 290 ft lbs while the Stage 2 kit includes a 2500 lb pressure plate good for 400 ft lbs. Both 1 & 2 are geared for street comfort and daily driveability. This is an ideal upgrade for a stock turbo plus bolt-ons.



STAGE 3:
Our Stage 3 kit includes a full segmented, ceramic, sprung disc, 2500 lb pressure plate, good for a max torque of 450 ft lbs. This kit is ideal for spirited driving and would also pair well with an IS38 turbo upgrade.



STAGE 4 & 5:
Our Stage 4 & 5 kits are comprised of both a 6 puck, and 4 puck copper, sprung, ceramic disc respectively. Both kits utilize our 2500 lb pressure plate. The Stage 4 kit is good for a max torque of 500 ft lbs while the Stage 5 kit is good for a max torque of 550 ft lbs. These kits are great options for a big turbo set-up.



In addition to the parts mentioned above, we also include brand new hardware, a specific clutch alignment tool, and a brand new OEM replacement release bearing.

A recent review from one of customers:

Not that anyone will read this but if you’re thinking about this set up for you TSI, I have the stage 2 kit in my car and I really couldn’t want much more out of it, it’s firm but not hard like a brick, definitely geared towards street applications, engagement feels good, there is a bit of a dead spot at the very top of the pedal which can be adjusted out if it bothers you and the flywheel chatters a bit but I changed out the crank pulley with the fluid dampr pulley and it quited down a lot, I was hesitant at first to buy from Black Forrest because I’ve just always used Southbend for my clutches but after a year with this kit in the car I’m very happy with it.
