update , stock dual mass/clutch buggard holds 8psi on stock dual mass,then turning boost up to 15/17psi the dual mass is buggard and friction plate slipping, so replaced the stock dual mass with a solid steel singal mass and bought a 5 paddle type clutch instead reckon i get a 40percent increase in holding power (so the clutch guy states after the run in period )
how true this is time will tell ,
, decied to go for a 5 paddle clutch instead of the 3 paddle type as it will be a bit less graby and ok for road use few pics

more engine gearbox stripping again lol

Ryan has a 4-puck (with a sprung centre) in his 740, and it's not so bad unless you get it super-hot.

cheers james , i was a bit unsure which to go tbh , due to chatting with the guy he recomended go with the 5 paddle as the lower the paddles more graby they are (you dont get a lot of meat on these do you lol ,i assumeing with been cermic they a bit hard wearing?)
another factor was the pressure plate , without paying between 400/500 for a upratted ,he stated i would get a 40percent increase in torque/holding abiltery, just the horried run in part i dont like of 400/450 miles

i personly think once worn in it will hold my boost nice under load ,, but only way to find out is fit the buggar and see i rekcon james

little update , due to a forium pulling my front brake idea down (when it was a stock calipare carrier , ive decided to update them
so here goes
got a pair of 4pot wilwoods

stock calipar pic

tempory fit of the wilwood

first thought all seems ok as i was told these had 330mm discs
as mine are only 312mm and the discs are too big for these calipars, as these came from a volvo 850r

so the next size i can only get is 286mm discs which ill try tomorrow
as the outers fit nice and makeing the adaptors isnt a big problem

plus these wilwoods just catch my 17inch alloys but will smaller discs they will miss ,
what do u guys reckon i should do ,(alway good to have some advise)

foggyjames · Oct 27th, 2009, 20:10

You shouldn't have so much of a thermal problem with something as light as the Caddy. I say the 286s will be just fine. The 280s are only a problem because 850s are so lardy.

cheers

powernut · Oct 28th, 2009, 18:47

nice one james i managed to get some 288mm discs and the calipars seem to fit nice on them ,and clear the 17inch rims too (carnt beat freebiss .....)
