Hey all. I have an a 95 540i with a ESS super on it. It's suppost to run about 420hp. Last weekend I ran got a little pissed off (damn women) and ran the car a little too hard........ok, a lot too hard. I pulled a hard first, second, third tires smoken, revs running all out burn out away from my house. Well, I think the clutch got the most of the workout. Needless to say the car stunk of burnt clutch for a day or so, and I can feel it in driving it that it doesnt pull exactly the same. Feels like it doesnt pick up as quickly.....like I have less pedal to work with. Anyway, I know sooner or later and if I do something stupid like that again it will be sooner, I am going to need a new clutch. So, I would like everyones opinions on what to go with and cost would be nice as well. I am pretty mechanical and would do the job myself. Remember the car is in the 400hp range so I would like to have something that could take the abuse.
