However, with the M5 I was opting towards the SSP clutches because they cheaper than Dodson and the 9sec M5 uses SSP clutches.

We have tuned quite a few cars with both SSP and Dodson clutches installed and to us, SSP have shown the best results and customers seem to be very happy. Many times we had cars come in with Dodson clutches installed and adaptations would just not reset. No matter what we would do, you could not adapt them. On other hand, SSP always adapt from first try and car feels nearly OEM like. Yes, SSP feels ever so slightly rougher then stock, but no where near as rough as Dodson. Good job SSPKris

Glad to hear that you are all having great results. We have been working on perfecting this platform for nearly 6 years now.
We are getting ready to release a new line up performance clutches for the BMW's DCT Transmission. Thanks Kris |

I'm looking to upgrade my 335is DCT trans. I saw you guys sell clutches. what do you think about the basket upgrade? Is that needed at 800whp? I've seen a lot of the m5's doing fine with jus the 900whp clutches you guys sell. Thoughts? |

Wheel horsepower is not a determining factor in which clutch or components you will need for your vehicle. All of our clutch components are rated in torque. When your vehicle hits 750 ft/lbs of torque to the wheels then you will need both billet output baskets. Anything below that and a clutch is all you will need. Our Spec-R clutch will be perfect for you. If you plan on going further with your can, I am recommending the baskets.

I am adding to this awesome product thread. I have had Kris' Stage 3 clutches in the Mutant for almost 10K now and have put them through every test imaginable. With 95K on my M5, it drives like new and can handle any and all the horsepower you can throw at it. The drivability in efficiency mode and regular sport mode is no different than the factory set up. Very comfortable and smooth shifting. In sport plus my original Clutches would slip from a stomp of the gas pedal in 4th gear at 80mph. Not anymore, they don't slip in any gear under any condition. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to add more power to their F10 M5 setup and wants both factory drivability and plus race performance capabilities. Thank you so much Kris at SSP PERFORMANCE!!!

Very true, I've also found the opposite true in the GTR as dodson clutches are the ones setting every record, and lasting thousands of miles on big builds. But then again no one product is a one size fits all. Some platforms each company excels at. SSP seems to have this and the huracan one on lock.

If you don't trust people that I have had both SSP and Dodson stage 2s used in their car I'm not sure who you're going to trust? |
