Does anyone know the clamp load of an OEM 1.8 clutch?

Rod's Enthusiast Manual for the 1.8 quotes 440kg for 'installed pressure' up front under specs. Couldn't find a reference in the old '90-'97 Haynes manual.

Thanks for that 93_clubman. The Extreme clutch I was looking at is 700KG's but they didnt know how much greater it was than stock. A fair bit by the look of it!
