Great way to do it. Then just spend $39 for a massage the day after when you find yourself sore from rolling around on the ground all day.

BTW I have a CM FX300/400 with flywheel special for AF members only.

main reason i didn't do it, is cause i want someone to warrenty my car once i get the new turbo on, if i hit the clutch hard v me throwing it in and maybe screwing something up and i couldn't be down the car for 3 or 4 days cause i couldn't do it in 1 or 2 days

The special I have going is for the A4 1.8t, I can see what I can put together for a 2.8. The flywheel is just a bit more expensive for the 2.8 and they only make it in a Billet Aluminum. To give you an idea, CM sells the 1.8 flywheels for $472.50 and the 2.8 flywheel for $759. CM sells the FX300/FX400 with the flywheel for around $1559 + shipping, I sell it for $1380 Shipped (48 states) on my site. I can get a slightly better price on the flywheel if I order 2 at a time and I always pass that savings to the customers. So if you can find another 2.8 owner that wants a clutch/flywheel package I should be able to do slightly better on the package price.
