    So i am trying to find people who have used the Sachs SRE Clutch with their Supercharged/Turbo cars and how they liked it and or it held up. I have a R32 and am Clutch shopping. I refuse to purchase a Clutch masters anything due to their QA QC issues.

    Anyway, I am currently building a Supercharger Setup and need something better than the OEM setup. Sachs SRE is what HPA used on their original Twin Turbo Cars and seemed like a Viable option.

    I was also looking into the Sachs- LOBA Twin Disk clutch but am trying to limit my spending if at all possible. Also I have no experience with LOBA products.


    Thanks for any input.

    Edit, just read your build thread. Why not a spec or clutchnet kit though? why specifically sachs?

    Sachs is generally highly recommended Spec. Besides the one hpa sells is generally ****. And I've never heard of clutch net

    Normally on our cars, id agree with you. But whatever HPA has them do is holding 500 FTLBS on twin turbo cars that ive talked to... doesnt mean im not hesitent. I went with a Sachs SRE Clutch. so this topic can get closed.
