   standard valeo, will cope with alot of punishment. Only need to think about changing if running over 160hp and or doing a lot of drag action..

   just because something is more expensive and is "said" to improve performance....does'nt mean it will.
   
   if you search Ryan will recommend the standard valeo clutch 99% of the time.....

   the VALEO is the best clutch around to use for most applications.
   
   almost everyone fitting 'uprated' ones have gone back to the valeo as they last better and seem to deal with power aswell.
   
   Im running one on a 200bhp NA engine
   
   black diamond ive heard very shit opinions of

    yeah the valeo clutches are high quality, the blackdiamond is a waste of money on a saxo, onlytime i would install an uprated clutch is on a decent powerfull motor like a tuned civc type r.
