   You dont need a fast road clutch for that.
   
   Valeo, Luk, Borg & Beck.
   
   Basically any that cost about £100

   If you have a triple plug ECU engine then you need the mk2 pressure plate bolt pattern. To be sure order a 2003 clutch for a vtr. If you have the single plug engine you will have a different pressure plate bolt pattern, so to be sure order a 1998 clutch!
   
   You can get a 4 paddle or fast road kit if you want, but theyre just not essential at all for that kinda power. Also could do with strengthening the clutch fork arm as they can bend with some of the paddle clutches ircc.

   No clutch should be rated for power either, torque kills clutches not power.
   If they are advertising it as a 150 hp clutch i'd probably give it a miss.
