XClutch 05-07 Volvo S40 T5 2.5L Stage 2R Extra HD Sprung Ceramic Clutch Kit

The XClutch Stage 2R Extra HD clutch kit uses a sprung ceramic friction disc, a design choice that helps absorb shock and vibration during engagement, making it a solid option for demanding applications. This kit is specifically recommended for track use, where higher torque holding capacity and superior heat management are critical for consistent performance. XClutch has analyzed the pivot point and diaphragm design to ensure a positive pedal feel and increased clamping force, which translates to better clutch engagement and power transfer.

This is a single-disc, race-only clutch designed to handle more torque and heat than its Stage 2 counterparts. It includes a high-performance pressure plate, a sprung ceramic friction disc, a hydraulic release bearing, a pilot bearing, and an alignment tool, ensuring you have the necessary components for installation. The kit is built with XClutch's extensive experience in clutch technology, aiming to provide a balance between driveability and the performance needed for spirited driving or track events.

Given the performance focus of this Stage 2R kit, it's important to note that it is a race-oriented component. While it offers significant improvements in torque handling and heat resistance, it's best suited for vehicles where these capabilities are a priority. Always refer to the manufacturer's technical service bulletins for specific installation details and recommendations.
