XClutch 94-98 Volkswagen Jetta GLX 2.8L Stage 2 Cushioned Ceramic Clutch Kit

If you're looking to upgrade the clutch on your 1990-1997 Volkswagen Passat, this Stage 2 cushioned ceramic clutch kit from XClutch is a solid option. It's designed for performance street applications where you need more torque holding and heat capacity than the stock clutch can handle. This kit is built to give you a better balance between everyday driveability and the performance you need when you push your car.

XClutch uses advanced ceramic friction material for this Stage 2 kit, which is known for its ability to handle higher temperatures and torque. The cushioned ceramic disc features a sprung hub and extra dampening between the friction surfaces. This design helps with pedal modulation, making it easier to control engagement, and it also absorbs some of the shock during gear changes. The kit includes a heavy-duty diaphragm pressure plate that offers increased clamping force for a more positive pedal feel, along with a release bearing, pilot bearing, and an alignment tool to make installation smoother.

This clutch kit is recommended for performance street use and is a good choice if you're planning on driving your Passat more aggressively or if you've made other engine modifications that increase power output. It's a well-built component designed to handle the demands of a performance-oriented vehicle.
