I'd say 140bhp will eat a smf.

 

i dont think it will ?? a think it could be better

but everyone has their own views on this smf and dmf flywheel conversions :thumb:

 

140hp will NOT eat the flywheel it might eat the clutch

Seriously though its not Horsepower that kills clutches/flywheels its torque AND driving style

There are 2 types of flywheel solid and dual mass WTF is smf !!! we are making up names for things that already have a name

I had a Subaru with near 300 hp and it ate clutches not because I was too rough with it simply because the flywheel/clutch system on a Subaru is too small and there is not enough clamping force in the cover to tame the horses its actually less meaty than an HDI clutch !!

Standard it was absolutely fine though.

So will a standard solid flywheel and clutch at 140hp providing its driven properly but then a dual mass flywheel can last fine if driven sensibly.

 

im not looking to replace until it fails

just read alot of conflicting info so searched the peugeot codes as shown above

has anyone done the following conversion?

 

I have done it to a 110 406 using a 90 flywheel but we had to use the 90 gearbox too as the clutch worked differently between the 2 90 is same as 307

It worked fine including towing trailers etc.

I also done it to all our old taxis 56 reg they all had dual mass failures regularly so all were converted to solid flywheels clutches wore out quicker but were easier and quicker to replace we had a couple of gearbox failures but not till 300k miles so may have went regardless.

Unless you are going to be using the power output to its full potential you are unlikely to find an issue with a normal flywheel.

 

i can change to a solid for about 150 notes new dual mass is 300-350

 

And after that a new clutch is less than £100 so who cares if it wears out quicker

 

my car has had 3 clutchs in the last 5 years doesnt throw alot of confidence lol

 

seriously but mined you me brother had 2 in a year but he is a shite driver ,plus buying re manufactured clutches :nod:

then the signum has had 4 in the last 6 months from cost well over £2000 quid
but thats all down to cheap defected parts from

(national clutch supply's in blackpool ) but they still say they are oem standard made

so watch for them people

 

Test fit will be soon then

 

has anyone done a clutch on a 1.6 hdi. when i did my 2.0 hdi the gearbox was a tight fit to get past the subframe lol

 

I have done 2 and it takes ages as half the car needs to stripped off the 2 litre is similar but easier.

 

dont mind taking things off the gearbox was a tight fit so a pain to line back up

lets hope i dont need to do it for a while lol
