| Your stock N54's clutch in your
135i/335i/535i is only designed for so much torque. Light to
moderate modifications are usually fine, but for all those guys out
there pushing their N54 engines to the limit, with tuners, bolt on's,
and more, then this ACT clutch is the perfect next mod for you.
These Act clutches for your N54 are strong enough to handle any kind of
torque you can produce with that N54, guaranteed! As well as to
never fade even under the most extreme conditions.

with the introduction of their clutch kits for the E46 M3 and BMW’s N54
powered (3.0L inline 6 cylinder twin turbo) cars, the 135i, 335i and
535i cars! The popularity of both applications combined with ACT’s 15
year reputation for quality and performance means that these new kits
are sure to sell out soon. ACT will be taking preorders on their initial
limited production run of these kits.
