Hello, I'm looking for clutch recommendation

[shred2bits]

Have a '96 mx5 which I want to turbo, need some advice on what is best middle Road clutch, something that can handle a td04 without making it undrivable in traffic, I'm looking for something i can buy in the UK for a max £300. My mechanic is exedy dealer but he said to ask on here as he isn't sure on what to fit. I don't want to order from the US if possible
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the recommendations however I think I'll go with the fm level 1, currently awaiting shipping quote from them, hopefully under £400 delivered to my door

Mine had a new stock Mk2.5 1.8 clutch fitted to fix clutch-judder back in 2003. It's still running on this clutch despite being supercharged and running well over 220bhp (currently around 240bhp) since 2004. This includes a few trips to Santa Pod and quite a few track days.

Is your car a mk2.5, i saw you have a 2001 not sure what mk that is. Would the 2,5 fit my mk1 ? I rather keep it stock but also I would hate to have to do it twice . Thanks for the reply

Hard to say torque figures, I guess under 200. Thanks for taking time to reply, really helping me out. Just got an email from FM , $330 for the clutch $115 for postage and I guess £80 odd for duty and vat . Guess a standard exedy clucth is around £140, eurocarparts are doing 15% off at the moment. From what I understandard the standard factory clutches on eunos were made by exedy

Well Lazza, you made me think about the gold plated thing, went on ebay and found s5 bosch battery for 55 quid from argos, click and collect so ill be getting it on my way home . A BIG THANKS FROM ME

The breather hoses are too big for my current battery so im leaving the boot open, thats why i was going for the mx5parts battery as probably breather hoses will be right. Guess it fixes my problem Does the clamp fit ok over it ? Thanks for the advice i already saved 200 odd quid thumbs up
