The RTS Performance Clutch Kit for Ford Focus MK4 ST: A Worthy Automotive Upgrade

The RTS Performance Clutch Kit – Ford Focus MK4 ST – Why This Automotive Upgrade is Worth Giving a Shot The auto world is abuzz with anticipation for the RTS Europe's iconic Ford Focus MK4 ST Performance Clutch Kit. Brilliantly engineered, this kit impresses with an innovative design that combines a twin-purpose friction plate using both organic and paddle designs, and a retracting strap plate clutch assembly for that perfect balance between power and handling. What really sets the RTS Performance Clutch Kit for Ford Focus ST150 apart, however, is its unique "Twin Friction" drive plate. This component bravely redefines the way we look at power and longevity, utilizing a distinctive flywheel side friction material along with a segmented pressure plate face. And the winning feature? The aramid friction that exhibits an impressive 50% less wear than conventional drive plate friction material. Thanks to the unique build and materials, the risk of fade is substantially reduced. Fade, the slip factor that happens as a clutch system's capacity to transmit torque dwindles with increasing operating temperatures, is virtually a non-concern here. Plus, coupled with the micro-structure of spheroidal casting and ER2 technology, the RTS Performance Clutch Kit effectively dissipates heat better, letting your car run cooler for longer. The RTS Twin Friction kit isn't just for show, it’s designed to handle more power with a higher clamp load than the standard clutch kit, transmitting an impressive 60% more torque. This makes it perfect for everyone, from the everyday motorist to the most passionate track/circuit racer, without compromising on the user-friendly driving feel. The two standout models, RTSTF-1256 (Twin friction) and RTSPC-1256 (5 paddle) are benchmarks in the world of performance clutch kits. The RTSTF-1256 is designed to significantly outperform the original clutch system while maintaining the OE pedal effort, resulting in a torque capacity of 465 lbs/ft. On the other hand, the RTSPC-1256 upholds the same OE pedal effort while delivering a torque capacity of 480 lbs/ft. Designed specifically for the Ford Focus ST 2.3 EcoBoost (MK4), the RTS Performance Clutch kit is undeniably the upgrade that both car enthusiasts and everyday drivers have been eagerly awaiting. It's not just a car part, it is a statement, a testament to precision engineering, and a bold step forward in automotive technology. So, if you're in the market for the next best upgrade for your vehicle, this is certainly one to consider!
