Ad: MFactory SMFW's & XClutch Performance Clutches

[MFactory]

At the forefront of innovation and new developments, MFactory are proud to announce our new partnership with Australian Clutch Services (ACS) and their new US market brand: XClutch USA

As one of their Master Warehouse Distributors (and their West Coast Distribution Facility), along with our own well established reputation in the Performance Drivetrain market, we believe we are in the ideal position to help XClutch USA push their new products to market.

About XClutch USA
XClutch is the American performance division of Australian Clutch Services. With over 25 years of experience, our performance kits are designed and developed to provide the ultimate clutch solution for the street or the track.

XClutch (Also known in other markets as "Xtreme Clutch") kits and components are designed and tested in-house at Australian Clutch Services which is based in South Australia. The range includes a wide variety of performance options including heavy duty, single plate road clutches all the way through to carbon clutches for time attack and drag racing. The XClutch range draws on our experiences in the Australian and European markets, but is tailored to suit the American car park and are SFI Certified.

Each kit is carefully designed to ensure it provides the attributes required for the specific vehicle use.

MFactory Single-Mass Flywheels (SMFW)

The MFactory 1pc Chromoly Single-Mass Flywheels are oem-compatible, which means they can be used with both the oem clutch or an oem-flywheel compatible aftermarket clutch.

Made from imported Japanese SAE 4140 Steel. These are Forged, Double Tempered and Super Sub-Zero treated for unsurpassed toughness, with a proprietary surface treatment for increased surface hardness.

Whilst not as light as some Aluminium Flywheels available on the market, this was done on purpose in order to reduce the amount of rattle that will occur during idle (this rattle sound is coming from the gears in your transmission, NOT from the flywheel)

I have a 2007 xi. Which do I need? I would like organic.

 

[MFactory]

Does the Xi use the same clutch as the regular RWD?

9" Single Disc Sprung Organic @ 450ft/lbs - MSRP $1295.00 + shipping

What has the overall consensus been on this clutch? I don't think I've seen an actual negative review yet.

 

[MFactory]

Feedback from our customers have all been positive

 

[saskatchewan135]

Feedback from our customers have all been positive

It grabs too hard and likes to break drive line parts

How special? I need an 8 bolt twin disc organic material the one that holds 900lb/tq. Its for a 2007 335i 6MT

 

[MFactory]

All PM's replied

 

[Nugs]

Do these fit a 2017 M140i?

 

[MFactory]

I believe it does, but I will need to double check for you

My twin disc organic xclutch is going strong and holds up to anything I throw at it, I dont abuse it as it is organic but holds all the power I throw at it.

Had it put down 128mph at the drag strip but its a street clutch so you have to treat it accordingly so no launches or flat changes.

Everyone thats has been in my car loves how smooth and quiet it is.

That is great to hear. Toque estimate?

 

[martymil]

Between 600 to 700nm or so, our dynos read very differently to dyno jet so its an estimate.

On ours it reads 530nm

 

[chrisdfv]

I've got 13k miles on my organic twin disc. 630wtq with lots of pulls here and there.

 

[Chris@VargasTurboTech]

We got ours yesterday for the sequential car. Our Spec had about 200 miles on it, and all the rivets fell out of it making it a 6 disc clutch. We won't be going back to spec. We got the 9" Twin rigid Ceramic. We will report back how it works.
