What is the main difference between this Stage 2 clutch and a stock clutch?

This Stage 2 clutch kit is built to handle more power than a factory clutch. It uses a pressure plate with higher clamping force and an organic disc designed for increased torque, making it suitable for modified engines.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the pressure plate, clutch disc, and pilot bearing. It is recommended to have the flywheel resurfaced or replaced, and you may need additional components like a new rear main seal or clutch fork depending on your vehicle's condition. Always consult the manufacturer's installation guide.

How does the sprung organic disc affect driving feel?

The sprung organic disc in this kit is designed to offer a good compromise between performance and daily usability. It provides strong engagement while still allowing for relatively smooth operation in stop-and-go traffic compared to some more aggressive clutch materials.

About this part

Product Details

This SPEC Stage 2 Clutch Kit, part number SO552, includes a high-performance pressure plate, a sprung organic clutch disc, and a pilot bearing. It's designed to handle the demands of modified vehicles that have seen an increase in horsepower and torque over stock specifications. If you're looking to upgrade your Volvo's drivetrain to match performance modifications, this kit offers a solid solution.

The Stage 2 clutch is a popular choice for drivers who have made significant engine upgrades, such as turbocharger modifications or engine tuning. The sprung organic disc provides a good balance between holding power and drivability, making it suitable for daily driving while still being able to manage higher power output. The pressure plate is engineered to provide increased clamping force, ensuring the clutch disc stays engaged under load. This combination helps prevent clutch slippage, which can occur when the stock clutch can no longer handle the engine's power.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to have the flywheel resurfaced or replaced to ensure proper engagement and longevity. While this kit is designed for a direct fit on the specified Volvo models, always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed procedures and any specific tool requirements. This kit is a significant upgrade for those pushing their Volvo's performance limits.
