The pressure plate is engineered to provide consistent clamping force, ensuring reliable engagement even under demanding conditions. This kit is a popular option for Focus owners who have modified their engines or plan to do so, as it offers a significant increase in torque capacity over the factory setup.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Proper break-in procedures are crucial for ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of the clutch. This kit is intended for vehicles that have undergone modifications or for drivers who simply want a more robust clutch system for their Focus. Ensure you have all the necessary supporting components, such as a new pilot bearing and release bearing, before beginning the installation.
