Look into the 550i/335is clutch. Seems many 2k series guys are doing this upgrade as it holds more torque than our OEM one does.

Is it a direct fit or Do I need to get other things for the clutch to work? Do you Maybe know the specific part number?

There's retrofitting kits, very easy to install as far as clutches go. Just google "550i clutch conversion".

Then I would definitely go with a factory clutch. Most aftermarket clutches are not as easy to drive with a harder clutch pedal and can be more bitey. A factory clutch works very well.

Yeah but I am going stage 1 soon and stage 2+ next year so will it hold? The 550i/335is clutch is priced the same as the m235 clutch. My only worry is that the 335is clutch will not be a direct fit.

Yes it will. If you slip clutch or don't shift well then it may prematurely wear.

every single of those items i listed is sold separately at FCP euro. i notice you are in sweden, so i don't know if they ship there, however, you can use their website to look up the parts i listed and you can order from wherever is suitable for you. you can buy genuine bmw parts too if you go to the dealership.

Typically Schmiedmann.com is a good source of genuine BMW parts if in Europe.
