RS4 clutch or Stage 2?
I don't know enough about either to make an educated decision. It seems to me that the stage two is the way to go for only about $300.00 more. (I'm going with the lightweight flywheel either way.)
Any opinions or experience with either of these?

The stage 2 is best if you are going to do alot of tracking. If you will be driving it daily on the road with little track use, the stage 2 will be too much IMHO - it's too grabby and very harsh. The stage 2 will also wear out sooner than the RS4 clutch. I have the RS4 clutch and it is great. It can be wound up to 4k or 4.5k and then dropped at a start and it grabs very well.

You may have pursuaded me. Too much is usually just enough, but, I like the idea of the RS4 clutch longevity; as long as I can get on it like I want and it'll handle it. Besides, it's less expensive too.
Thanks for your humble opinion Imola!

"id just got stage 3 neways."
"rs", are you saying that you have the "stage 3"?
I may end up with about 450 horse and 500 torque, and if not, I will be close.
How much shorter do you expect the stage 3 to be compared to the stage 2 in life longevity?

naw i dont have stage3, i was saying that if i was going to get my clutch replaced and know my cars gonna see more then 450hp id consider going stage 3 instead of rs4
or even a heavy duty stage2, remember, the rs4 clutch is still considered a stock clutch, preformance parts most of the time are better the stock..

OK!
I've done more research and spoken with one of the head guys in my local Audi Club.
He suggest that (unless your an idiot, and no offense to the idiots out there 'cause I'm one of 'em) you probably don't even need a clutch upgrade at all, unless you do the outrageous upgrades that are available out there (which I am planning on doing eventually) so, he suggests at the most, do the RS4 clutch.
Hmmm?
I think it's a done deal.
I bought an Audi S4 to learn skill and finese above all else, it's just a bonus to tromp on everything else out there in the straight line, but that's second, style and class and skill are first.
RS4 clutch and lightwiegt flywheel here I come!
