What is the benefit of a 6-puck clutch disc compared to a stock clutch?

A 6-puck clutch disc, like the one in this kit, offers a much higher torque capacity than a standard multi-plate clutch. The puck design allows for more aggressive engagement and can handle significantly more power, making it suitable for modified vehicles or those subjected to hard use.

Why is an aluminum flywheel included in this kit?

An aluminum flywheel is lighter than a traditional steel flywheel. This reduced rotational mass allows the engine to rev up more quickly, potentially improving throttle response and acceleration. It's a common upgrade for performance-oriented vehicles.

Does this clutch kit require a special break-in period?

Yes, most performance clutch kits, including this Clutch Masters FX400, require a break-in period. This typically involves a series of gentle engagements and disengagements to properly seat the clutch disc material to the flywheel and pressure plate. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific break-in procedure.

About this part

Product Details

The Clutch Masters FX400 6-puck clutch kit is built around a sprung 6-puck disc, offering a significant increase in holding capacity over stock. This kit is designed for the 2014-2019 Mini Cooper models equipped with the 1.5L Turbo engine, providing a robust solution for drivers who demand more from their drivetrain. The sprung hub design on the puck disc helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a more aggressive clutch engagement, making it a bit more manageable for daily driving than a solid hub design.

This kit includes an aluminum flywheel, which is notably lighter than a traditional steel flywheel. This weight reduction means less rotational mass for the engine to spin up, potentially leading to quicker engine response and a slight improvement in acceleration. The FX400 series clutches are known for their ability to handle higher horsepower and torque levels, making this a popular choice for modified vehicles or those that see spirited driving. Clutch Masters uses well-built components throughout the kit to ensure reliability and performance under demanding conditions.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to resurface or replace your existing flywheel if it's not coming with a new one, but this kit includes a new aluminum flywheel. Ensure all mating surfaces are clean and that you follow the manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure for optimal performance and longevity of the new clutch components. This kit is a comprehensive upgrade for the Mini Cooper's drivetrain, offering increased performance and durability.
