They are still verifying the fit and parameters for the flywheel. They ordered a new flywheel from Audi and was not sure of the accuracy of it so now they are waiting for a used flywheel removed from a 2001.
The good side is my clutch hasn't started slipping yet but I can tell it is very thin.

So which kit will come first?
You have ordered your APR kit right? I've been waiting since the end of July.....I dont mind waiting but it's killing me, esp with a gimp car.
I'm thinking that I'm going to go the same route as you with the stage 2 clutch with my stage 3 kit. I'm not going to be launching the car all that much so I dont really think a puck clutch will be worth it. I'm lucky though, nDBW car so my clutch and flywheel should come quick when I order it

You can't be worse off than Silver Streakin...
If he adds ANY boost, the clutch slips. The clutch literally engages in the last 1/2" of pedal travel. He's still driving around on it...so if you're nowhere near those limits...you got a while to go!

I bet you will launch more than you think...
I thought the same thing... then I got the clutch, and now I launch ALL the time... good thing I am on a 6puck unit!
and if you are going stage 3, you will wanna launch even MORE!

heehee... I was gonna say...
you may <I>THINK</I> you are mature...
I gotta admit, a good clutch with AWD makes you appear a HELL of a lot faster than you are... you know, when you are on the street... I only play up to about 45mph... so 2nd gear? but man, I look REAL fast getting there...
I can't imagine what I would do with a big turbo kit....
