The 1150KG is how much clamping force the pressure plate puts on the clutch disk. Basically how tight it squeezes it when you let the clutch pedal up.
This is know as "Clamp load"
1150KG is 2300lbs. So the pressure plate when released is applying 2300lbs of pressure to the disk. The more pressure you apply to the clutch disk the more TQ the clutch can handle. By the specs given that clutch should hold around 450TQ on paper. About what Southbend rates its Rally Organic kit but they don't "over rate" their kits. Some friction materials (clutch disk) can hold more TQ than others. Organic (also made to sound uber special and called "Carbon Kevlar", Same shit) clutch material is one of the lowest holding TQ materials, Whereas Ceramic, Feramic, Kevlar hold more TQ for the same amount of clamp load.
