Clutch recommendations
Posted: Sun Dec 21, 2025 11:19 pm
Hello guys!
I'm Alex, new to the forums and new to the GTI world!
Just bought my first VW, a 6C Polo GTI with the 6 speed manual transmission but unfortunately the clutch is slipping (thankfully noticed before buying so a better deal had to be made
).
The car is a stage 1, dynoed at 257ps and 422Nm of torque, so I'm not really sure what clutch kit should I install. I was thinking about the Sachs performances kit , but I do not plan on upgrading any more in the near future, thus I do not want to spend so much money on a performance kit that I'm not going to utilize 100%.
What clutch kit do you guys recommend that could handle the mentioned torque numbers and won't brake the bank? Thanks in advance!
