What clutch should I be using for an A+ Verto Mini Turbo setup? It's a daily driver, probably will never see a drag strip, so don't want anything too heavy/snatchy.

Cant fault an RTS 'double spring' setup.

Just had a look. Not really confident in my abilities to do that in all honesty. Unless someone sells these as kits?

The only real option off the shelf for a verto is a light blue 'turbo' cover and a race/rally plate.

for 120 hp you should be ok with a blue turbo cover and a rally fiction plate.

Will probably go for the blue turbo cover then, but thanks for the offer Slater - may well take you up on that if the blue doesn't seem to hold up.

Shaunas has an AP race/rally friction plate and the 'turbo' pressure plate, doesn't slip at 10psi/117ftlbs and I doubt it would at 12-14psi although that's probably closer to it's limit at around 14-15 I'd have guessed. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

With my verto setup I used the AP race/rally plate and the turbo cover, fine at 7psi, but slipped when I turned it up |

I put 101.4 bhp and 90lbft through the turbo verto clutch. No bother at all. Non turbo though at that time.
