2002 C70 Clutch and Flywheel

Post by ryanvolvo »

Hi There,

I have a 2002 Volvo C70 manual with a M56 gearbox. The clutch is ready to be replaced now, it's slipping when the turbo boost kicks in. The ECU has been remapped quite heavily and we're running higher boost pressure with more aggressive timing/fuelling.

I believe this model has a Dual Mass Flywheel. Is it worth converting to a Single Mass flywheel with the performance increases that have been made? If so, can anyone recommend the correct parts and where to get them from? I'm in the UK.

Any help, suggestions, advice and opinions are welcomed.
