Yes, we have installed one and as far as I know it is still in the car. I used Centerforce for years in the old DSM stuff, loved that clutch.

I was thinking about using the CF DF clutch as i have one in my 63 Dodge 440,(450HP over 500ft.lbs. of tq.). Its been in the car for close to 10 years already,(i have the car for 17 years so far). I went with the ACT MB7- hdss and prolight flywheel and love it. It has about 1k on it now and i am more than satisfied. The only reason i didnt go with the Centerforce was that when i was clutch shopping i posted about the CF asking if anyone has used it in an evo and got no responses at all. Like i said i,ve had it in my dodge and it still grabs and holds the power like it did after i put it in and broke in correctly and ran the crap out of it.But thats rwd as opposed to awd where the tires break lose a whole lot easier. I had the dodge out yesterday and was smoking them up, power shifting, power breaking, and not even a hint of slippage or smell. I,m sure the CF would have been great in my evo but like i said i got no feedback from anyone with an evo on it so i went with the ACT. If you look at my post date it was nov.27th and this is the first responses i,m getting on it. Too late.(LOL)

Sorry, it was the first time I had seen the post.

The ACT is the absolute worst shifting clutch you can install in an EVO. We don't recommend them. In the time it has been available we have sold maybe 6. It is not what we recommend.
