Advice on clutch selection

What type and brand of clutch do you guys recommend for an evo that is shooting for 450whp? Stocker is about to putt out on me so I'm starting to look around.

Also do you guys have any install deals on certian clutches?

Anything that doesn't have a torque capacity above 500ft.lbs of torque would be best.

sorry we havent posted earlier. You put this thread up right before we closed. For 450 WHP I recomend the Exedy twin carbon with the upgraded pressure plate. Drives Great and will hold the power you are looking for. I cant say enough about exedy products.

Ok sounds like a good bet. How about the added pressure affecting the Tcase? is that an issue?
