they should. Oil gally threads should be the same and everything else is universal.

Hi again, so I'm back to ask what would be the best option for upgrading my clutch? i am having a lot of trouble finding compatible parts for my B5 engine, i have the turbo and manifold all bolted up and it idles fine, havn't stressed it yet as we havn't had it tuned up and I want to make sure that things are safe before i start to test it fully.

From what I remember is that the B5 uses the same clutch and flywheel the US sohc b6 uses. ACT makes several styles to choose from. my favorite was the 6 puck ceramic with a sprung hub. if you are using the gearbox that came with the b5 then I strongly recommend using a clutch with a sprung hub and ceramic tends to grip real hard you might want to go with a organic OE style disk. its easier on the differential. your b5 is the same as the b6, main difference is the size of the pistons.
