    I did Kevlar clutch in my R8

    Hi all,
    I would like to share with you my experience with Kevlar clutch from Hi Tech Exotic. the car shift much faster between 7K and 8K RPM I would say %30 faster. in fact I race two R8 V8 like my car and I am a head each time I shift gear half a car.
    the Hi Tech Exotic claim that the clutch will last %300 more than stock one. I am happy with it.

    check out this video for speed test I did and watch the RPM

    doorme, thank you for the report! I moved this thread into Performance Modifications, I think it belongs best in that section.

    That is awesome. I will for sure upgrade the clutch when and if mine ever goes out.

    Good to hear someone has tried this out and has some feedback on it. I'd like to have something to offer customers who want an upgrade. Waiting to see how it holds up over time.

    Thanks,

    Nice video.

    I also have a Hi Tech Exotic Kevlar in my Gallardo. Mine also shifts faster at 8,000 rpm. I have 28k miles on my Hi Tech kevlar and I still have 50% left. My original clutch only lasted 8k miles.

    It is also smoother than my stock clutch. A lot of Lamborghini owners use their clutch. Here are some feedbacks from Lamborghini guys.

    Thank you for your great feedback on our Kevlar clutch.

    I'm glad that you're happy with our Kevlar clutch. A lot of our Lamborghini customers have also noticed that they are getting 300% more than their stock clutch. Some have been able to get even more than 300%.

    Thanks
