This is a Phoenix Friction Products Stage 4 combination Kevlar and Ceramic disc and High-Clamp Load upgrade Solid Flywheel Conversion Clutch Kit for the G56 Mercedes Transmission. The heavy-duty high clamp pressure plate offers increased torque while the upgraded Kevlar and Ceramic button style disc. The combination of a full-faced Kevlar friction material and a bonded Ceramic button ring clutch handles high heat levels and minimizes chatter. It will provide up to a 33% increase in engine torque capacity over the OE clutch. At the same time, you will notice only a slight increase in pedal effort over the stock clutch. The combination of these two premium friction materials provides up to a 200% gain in clutch life than that of original equipment under normal driving conditions. Note: Kevlar is a high tech material that needs up to a 750-1000 mile break in period to properly seat for optimum performance.
The kit comes standard with an upgraded prefilled hydraulic system that bolts right on, eliminating the need to bleed the system after installation. The Kevlar disc is guaranteed not to chatter and the heavy duty pressure plate provides reliable engagement with only a slight increase in pedal pressure.
A Phoenix Stage 4 combination Kevlar and Ceramic solid flywheel conversion clutch kit is a direct replacement for the OE Dual Mass Flywheel clutch setup and will not require any modifications during installation and includes all parts required for the conversion.
