I am running the Fioroni Lightweight Vario on my B5. After a gallon of break-in on the street and finishing up on the track, the shoes show practically no signs of wear. Even the carbon shoe hasnt started rolling over! Its a really good setup!

I would highly recommend setting it up in the #2 position, unless the track has tons of traction. I had it on the #3 position (stiffest), on a dry/loose track and the car was a handful. Switched it to the #2 position (took less than 5 minutes to make the change), and it was killer! I am really happy with this clutch.

I used the Ascendancy clutch bells (13T - 14T), and they work great with the Vario.
