I would change them. Buy the c6z clutch packs and springs they are the best bang for the buck period. It is a huge improvement over stock, and in my opinion superior to alot of the aftermarket cryoed oem clutch packs that you see shattered alot! Pm me and Ill tell you which ones not to buy, because I have had alot. C6Z's are a pucked design and made of carbon fiber, and the springs that are quite a bit stiffer than the c5 oem clutch packs, while they are cheaper than most aftermarket sets.

So the C6Z clutch packs will fit right in?
If so, I'll keep that in mind for the future.
Thanks for the info.
