I've never had a clutch explode, it usually occurs when a standard cast iron flywheel or pressure plate is lightened and simply loses strength enough, to cope with the centrifugal forces at play at a usually extended redline. I have had a turbo motor tear the lining from a clutch at speed, it just rolled to a stop in gear with the motor still spining.

We all have experiences to bring to these forums. I have had only one 928 but it is just a vehicle, and of those I've had more than I care to think about and then there are the ones I've only worked on. The principals remain the same.

No worries Roy.

I actually did have a stock clutch disc (not a 928) shatter on me, and in the worst place it could happen too. Had to walk for miles in the hot sun to get help (no cell phones back in day). For me, seeing a disc that close to the rivet and my bad experience and it already being out. My choice is easy.
