Sorry man I should read a little more before posting. Why are you not going with the ACT street disk? I payed $499 for mine. I have over 300WHP and have 13,000 miles on it with no problems. Holds great at the track and also does not kill you in traffic.

The spring center disc that you were looking at is a Clutchnet disc. You can buy it direct from them if you want. The springs are not going to save your drivetrain though. They will help to make the splines on the disc last longer and the gear noise to be lessened. Our solid center puck disc is going to wear the splines of the disc faster but it's meant for racing really and the saved weight makes it shift slightly quicker. There is always some give and take in a design. Unless you making some high HP or you are racing, I would stick to the street disc IMO.

What if you only put 10K a year on the Evo and want something that shifts faster and holds 400 ft lbs (not rated at 400 - HOLDS 400)?

With a 10% allowance for wear, heat, and margin of safety, our street setup will hold an honest 450 ftlbs or torque (497 is the rating at peak pressure, etc). Whether it will shift fast enough or take the amount of heat and abuse you want to give it is matter of personal opinion. The ceramic puck type disc is going to sacrifice some comfort as far as engagement goes, and it will be overkill on the torque capacity. I mean Turbotrix is running that setup (off the shelf ACT parts) and runs 9.7s. I am sure he is making at least close to 600 ft lbs of torque.

On the other hand, I can go out there and fry any clutch including the $3-4000 ones in less than a couple minutes if I wanted to. Keep in mind that I make a better engineer than salesman. You are not going to find me telling people, "Our clutch is perfect. Shut up and buy it." IMO, there is no such thing as a perfect clutch for everyone. There is always a tradeoff even if the other manufacturers don't always admit it.
