I've had it for the last two months and for me it was definitely a cheaper option to the oem kit. I've liked it so far, it kept up well on the only short trackday I did yet. in traffic it becomes a little bit more un-smooth than the oem, but still works well and maybe it's just a feeling, but it picks up revs faster.
I’ve installed a few of these and the only comment was that there was a slight amount of clutch chatter vs. stock.
Highly recommend them, and would choose them for any applicable use.
I have a Valeo kit in the Lemons race car that has lasted through 6 race weekends and a few track days so far. No issues at all, nothing but abuse. My e36 is a 318ti.
Valeo kit with SMF conversion is pretty cheap. I have it and love it so far.
I have about…2 years on my Valeo kit and I’m very happy. The clutch bites really well, the car responds to throttle blips/heel toe really well. I have zero complaints. The flywheel chatter is noticeable, but fixable. If it drives you nuts you can get your idle raised by like 200rpm and it’ll quiet down, but honestly I don’t mind it much. Racecar noises.
I put the Valeo single mass kit on my 04...has been awesome!
if you are bone stock (or even stage 1) I would personally recommend the Valeo single mass clutch kit. I had this kit in 2 of my cars (one of which was stage 1+) and never had a problem with it.
Valeo HD 100% is the only option you should consider based on your driving habits. It can hold more power than stock, and won’t cause the annoying rattles a single mass flywheel setup will cause.
I manual swapped the car myself and used a stock clutch fork, [this](https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1326451&cc=1134010&pt=1993&jsn=18&_nck=HllVxRCey1%2B2aVRDo41oQXhbegy63eH0ZQw4Qu2hbnVNrSa9QiFztXFB8fAiad4cNnjyg1Wh75cdlSCw6212A%2BF7sjOu10NFmttFaSg9TgmJ79BOXctBfgOsvzChLR%2FJb1t2NdrLb7j5Izi9VCWKZEoPuIDDobaM7Nivo%2FfSWA9mToJBXGAQcYvUFR0tXWI0vw63Op9RQQBMSocBR2FUeL%2BQPlhbXGbm4WTSnmuf%2BkU50Z9HUqkperMi8C8R6rldqwLO%2Fm5akTCRGFR%2B9gblQ3PsI4JdJiCZS%2FNe5MkyloNGyW1guyER%2F1sHrCMGt%2F8g) Valeo kit and [this](https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8116052&cc=1134010&pt=1972&jsn=13) cable. Right from the start it was very heavy and I just put up with it but I've recently been in another fox which had a much lighter pedal, inline with what i'm used to with cable clutches.
I do suggest the Valeo HD clutch kit while you are in there....you could maybe skip replacing the flywheel if it is in good condition, but the more proper thing is to replace it as well. The whole kit is $300 with a new slave cylinder and stainless line.
