If it's standard engine then the standard clutch will be fine for the amount of power you can get out of a 4 engine

Good for 330 I suppose

What you ought to do is fit a standard clutch kit and flywheel from a Evo 8/9.
Just put one in my mates 5 which came out mates 9.
It's a straight forward swap and clutch has a greater surface area so you can run more power.

Mate ran 400/400 on his standard IX clutch no problem.

mean's getting a new fly wheel tho. But i prob would have to get mine skimmed so maybe a good 2nd hand one? Worth a thought tho. What about these exedy organic clutch's ? I mean can they handle 350ish bhp.Thanks Nick

Helix organic yes but not the exedy one. Apparently the only exedy clutch to have is twin plate but that's going to be overkill for what you want.

Lots of Evo 8/9 owners upgrade to twinplate clutches as my mate did so had a spare clutch and flywheel sat around till Xmas time.
Put a wanted add up next door.

i was going to get the cusco exedy organic clutch in the next couple of days, dont u rate them then lee if not i wont bother

I've never used one, can only go on what I've heard but then that is only hearsay.
I used helix organic and ran 460bhp through it and launched it several times with no problems and it's just like a standard clutch to use :)
