About this part

Product Details

This Clutch Masters 725 Series Race Clutch Kit is specifically for the 2014-2017 Volkswagen Passat with the 1.8T engine and a 5-speed manual transmission. If you're pushing your Passat hard, especially with modifications that increase horsepower and torque, this clutch is built to handle the extra load. It's designed to hold up to 700 ft/lbs of torque, which is a significant increase over the stock clutch's capacity.

The 725 Series kit features a sprung, multi-plate design, which helps manage the increased clamping force while maintaining a more comfortable pedal feel than a typical unsprung race clutch. It comes with an aluminum flywheel, which is lighter than a stock steel flywheel. This weight reduction can help your engine rev more freely, contributing to improved acceleration. The sprung hub design in the clutch disc helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a higher-performance clutch, making it more streetable for a race-oriented setup.

When installing a high-performance clutch like this, it's important to ensure all related drivetrain components are in good condition. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your existing clutch assembly, but it's always recommended to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and torque specifications. This clutch is a solid option for Passat owners looking to significantly upgrade their drivetrain's torque handling capability.
