Helix Autosport Performance Clutches at JXL Performance

Engineered and manufactured in the UK, Helix Autosport is a premier name in motorsport driveline technology. For decades, they have supplied championship winning race teams and serious driving enthusiasts with clutch systems designed to handle massive torque increases without catastrophic failure. When you push beyond basic bolt on modifications and start installing larger turbochargers or running aggressive custom ECU calibrations, the factory clutch will rapidly overheat and slip. Helix Autosport provides the exact heavy duty clamping force required to ensure every ounce of engine power makes it safely to the tarmac.

2 Piece Upgrades and 3 Piece Single Mass Flywheel Kits

Modern factory manual transmissions are almost exclusively fitted with a dual mass flywheel designed to absorb NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) for the mass market. However, under heavy track abuse or high horsepower launches, these factory dual mass units frequently overheat, separate, and fail completely.

Helix offers highly engineered 2 piece replacement kits utilizing uprated pressure plates and premium organic or cerametallic friction discs to drastically increase torque holding capacity. For drivers wanting the ultimate driveline reliability, Helix specializes in comprehensive 3 piece kits that include a billet steel single mass flywheel. Converting to a single mass flywheel completely eliminates the factory weak point while simultaneously reducing rotating mass, resulting in a much sharper, more responsive engine rev profile that is perfect for heel and toe downshifting on the circuit.

Bulletproof Drivelines for Fast Ford and JDM Platforms

Helix Autosport hardware is heavily relied upon by owners of the most legendary hot hatches and sports cars on the road. In the fast Ford scene, an uprated Helix clutch is considered a mandatory upgrade when pushing the 1.6 EcoBoost engine in the Mk7 Fiesta ST beyond Stage 2 power levels. They are equally critical for handling the immense torque generated by the 2.5 liter five cylinder engines found in the iconic Mk2 Focus ST and Mk2 Focus RS.

In the Japanese tuning market, Helix kits are perfectly tailored to handle aggressive all wheel drive launches in the Toyota GR Yaris, ensuring the potent G16E-GTS three cylinder engine can safely deploy maximum power. Furthermore, if you are bolting forced induction onto the FA20 boxer engine in a ZN6 Toyota GT86, a Helix SMF conversion will effortlessly hold the massive increase in torque without ruining the daily drivability of the car.
