Product Description

The SPEC SV363H Stage 2 Plus Clutch Kit is engineered for Volkswagen VR6 platforms from 1999 to 2002 and select Passat and Audi TT applications. Combining a full-faced dual-friction disc with a high-clamp plate and double-sprung hub, it delivers around 395 ft-lb of clamping torque - approximately 15-20 % more than Stage 2 - while still retaining smooth daily drivability and ease of engagement. 

Ideal for street-driven cars with moderate performance upgrades, the SV363H improves torque transfer during spirited driving, autocross, or occasional drag use without sacrificing comfort. Installation requires either a SPEC single-mass billet flywheel or a resurfaced OEM flywheel for proper performance. As with all high-performance clutches, a 450-mile break-in period is required before full-throttle launches or track use to ensure optimal longevity and warranty compliance.
