The car in question was the ruffest thing i have ever seen in the world bar none !!!! The bodykit was hanging off it had odd wheels on it ,3 street ka and 1 mondeo 16 inch thing
but boy did it go!!
The guy who owned it was so exited by the car , he must have been a real enthusiast !!!!
he took me out ,flicked the switch at mid revs it started to spin the wheels and never stopped!!!!!
It popped and banged from the exhaust what a fantastic machine.
but 135mph in a KA i dont think i want that thanks !!
but i will take the boost switch, getting mine done next friday

Flooring it in first will kill most bits anyway
But there are times when it can be a pain knowing that the power is there but you cannot get at it :-)
Like against a boy racer at the lights (just kidding!)

Helix is a small company that makes performance clutches they are built using Organic friction material. When build the clutches are tested for even pressure and are fully balanced. Yes they are a little more money than a std clutch but it does include the hydralic bearing (£75.00) which is advisable when changing the clutch.
All the parts we fit on to pumas are quality parts that will do the job,
All std pums owners will be ok with a std clutch and you should see 60,000 mile if treated right.
FRP owners treat yourself and have a Helix clutch they produce 30% more clamping pressure and are ideal for ther FRP.
The pedal pressure is incressed slightly but is still acceptable in day to day driving.
