Looking for a serious 2.0 TFSI clutch upgrade that still drives beautifully on the road? The RTS Performance Single Mass Flywheel (SMF) clutch kit is a proven, uprated clutch solution for EA113 2.0 T‑FSI engines. This performance clutch and single mass flywheel conversion is ideal for daily drivers, fast road builds and track cars seeking stronger torque handling, sharper response and dependable heat management.
RTS has engineered this SMF conversion specifically for the TFSI platform, combining a robust single mass flywheel with either the renowned Twin Friction drive plate or a motorsport-style 5 paddle disc.
