Clutch Masters 10-11 Audi S5 3.0L B8 Supercharged FX250 Clutch Kit

If you're looking to replace the clutch on your 2008-2014 Audi S5 with the supercharged 3.0L engine, this Clutch Masters FX250 kit is a solid option. It's built to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a good choice if you've added performance modifications or plan to in the future.

This FX250 kit uses a performance pressure plate and a sprung disc with a unique multi-friction material. This combination is designed to offer a comfortable pedal feel, similar to stock, but with a higher torque capacity. Clutch Masters rates this kit to hold up to 450 horsepower and 400 ft-lbs of torque, which is a notable increase over the factory setup. The sprung hub design of the disc helps to absorb some of the drivetrain shock, contributing to a smoother engagement and a more comfortable driving experience, especially in daily driving situations. The kit includes the pressure plate, clutch disc, and a release bearing, so you have the essential components for the job.

When replacing your clutch, it's a good time to inspect your flywheel for any signs of wear or damage. If your flywheel is worn or warped, it's recommended to have it resurfaced or replaced to ensure proper clutch operation and longevity. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and torque specifications.
