S4/LS6 - clutch/flywheel/pressure plate

[DougRobinson]

What are all my options on where to get them and what to use?

Give me some websites and phone numbers.

Also does anybody have any info on lightweight flywheels for this application?

Kennedy makes a flywheel clutch combination and a I believe Tilton makes a clutch as well. I am not sure on the S4 if you can use the Kennedy triple disc which I highly recommend if it will work. My car has about 500hp with an S4D and I have over 1500 pre run miles on it with no problems. The double disc setup is easily fried. Another option is a TCS torque converter and I believe they make a flywheel as well.

Thanks for the response. Whats that triple disk setup run for cost wise?

About $1000 for flywheel and clutch setup

 

[DougRobinson]

Ill probably upgrade to that after I replace this next clutch. What pressure plate do you run with that?
Whats the deal with the TCS Torque converter? Im not familiar with that.

The pressure plate is Kennedy as well. You need to verify that the triple disk will work with the standard S4. I have the S4D. The torque converter setup is just like an automatic transmission has. It has no clutch and you just let off the gas and shift. This setup is easier on drive train components as it is a fluid coupling between the motor and transmission
