Unveiling the Ultimate RTS Performance Clutch Kit for Ford Focus ST225/2.5 RS/RS500 (MK2) Models
When it comes to car parts and performance, there are some kit upgrades that simply stand head and shoulders above the rest. Meet the RTS Performance Clutch Kit – specifically designed for Ford Focus ST225/2.5 RS/RS500 (MK2) models – and find out why this might just be the upgrade you've been dreaming of. This kit even includes a genuine Ford Concentric Slave Cylinder, and comes in HD, Twin Friction, or 5 Paddle options.
What makes the RTS Performance Clutch Kit so great? Well, it all starts with the superb quality materials and advanced technology. The unique “Twin Friction”(drive plate) is specially designed using an exceptional flywheel side friction material. This cutting-edge design features a segmented pressure plate face, which drops the wear rate by 50% compared to conventional drive plate friction materials.
Perhaps one of the most impressive features of this clutch kit is its ability to reduce fade. To put it simply, "fade" refers to the reduction in the clutch system's capacity to transmit torque as the operating temperatures increase. This can lead to decreased performance and, over time, cause damage to your system.
The RTS Performance Clutch Kit goes a long way in combating fade. How? Its unique design, incorporating the micro-structure of spheroidal casting and ER2 technology, enables the clutch to dissipate heat more effectively. This means the clutch runs cooler, for longer – ensuring maximum efficiency and performance, no matter how much pressure the system is under.
And that's not all. The RTS Performance Clutch Kit delivers a higher clamp load than standard kits, allowing the clutch system to transmit 60% more torque. This makes it perfectly suited to everyday driving, fast road, and even track/circuit racing - all while maintaining a user-friendly driving experience.
In terms of models, the RTSTF-0815 (Twin friction) and RTSPC-0815 (5 paddle) both offer fantastic capabilities. They have been meticulously designed and manufactured to exceed the original clutch system's performance, while still maintaining an OE pedal effort. This results in a formidable torque capacity of 395 lbs/ft and 420 lbs/ft respectively.
Making the upgrade even more desirable, the RTS Performance Clutch kit is suitable for the EA888 Gen 3 Manual Cars including the Ford Fiesta MK8 1.5L ST200.
So, for those out there who are looking for both a significant increase in performance and maintaining a comfortable driving experience, the RTS Performance Clutch Kit truly presents a unique blend of quality, performance and value.
