clutch 91 xr2 turbo
« on: August 13, 2012, 08:10:00 AM »

There are so many new clutches to choose from, which one would be best for a 1991 xr2 turbo?

OEM = meh, I really wouldn't bother with OEM honestly
Budget performance = eBay "F1" brand or "XTR" - OE style pressure plates w/ a performance disk material
Higher performance = SPEC, ACT, Centerforce

I'm running an ACT HD-SS, heavy duty pressure plate with a full-face "Super Street" disk for streetability. It's got some serious power holding capability, I'm running it with my 1.8L Turbo + AWD and it doesn't slip one bit. Pricey clutch but necessary if you're making serious power

Personally I stay away from the multi-puck clutch disks for everyday drivability reasons but some folks have had good luck with them.

TL;DR: There isn't one "Best" clutch - it depends on your budget, power output, and driving style
