What clutch should I buy for an 03 CLS6?

My aging factory clutch is starting to lose its edge, just curious what clutch you guys would recommend for my replacement.

I’m aiming for about 300-320 crank HP by the end of my build, thought I’d mention that in case I should aim for something designed to handle slightly more than factory HP.

from basic research I found the action clutch “

Stage 1 1OS (Organic Sprung) Incl. HD - ACR-0524”


This one

what do you guys think?

A lot or people like LUK, but i don't like dual mass fw nor self adjusting clutches, so for my 2g i got a clutchmasters single mass light flywheel and stage 3 non self adj clutch. they have different levels depending on power. I had stage 1 for factory fw on my 3g tls and it was fine. The stage 3 is pretty harsh, but it holds really well.

On another note. how do you plan to measure crank hp? engine dynos are the only way i know of. chassis dyno measures power to the wheels.

Thanks for the info, I’ll look that up. Just regular dyno + 15% drivetrain loss calculation, idk why I decided to say crank Hp, I guess because subconsciously I like saying the crank estimate because it’s much higher than WHP.
