Please stop!!!!

Read below man, i posted stuff directly from Exedy's website.

You are talking about the lesser strentgh SR model. No one even sells that because the HD model is $50 more.

A birdie high up recently told me that Exedy will be releasing a new Twin Plate soon... Is this why they are on back order everywhere, and prices are going up?

I actually agree with ultimate about your clutch...you're gonna have to replace it soon if you put the green on so either abuse the hell out of it now and replace it soon, or just know it will probably start slipping soon after the turbo install and tune.
i was in a dilema between the 50trim and evo green. i plan to run this on straight pump. so green is the cheaper way to go. r u goin to the starbucks meet tonight?

I have 16k in my car now. I launched the car just a couple of times and its starting to give up on me. You should just save the money and get a clutch and meth kit and call it day. And later go bigger turbo.

where in NJ are you from?

18k mile stock clutch and i have the 20gLT at 24psi. The stock clutch holds on the street but a dynopac dyno with the load no way. Known from experience. I still have the stock clutch in i just can't go back to the dyno yet. The car put down 361whp and 369wtq on the stock turbo at same psi and this 20glt it a rocket compared to the stock turbo

You said 500+ the first time. Yes, it's rated at 497 _flywheel_ tq, and I blew the hell out of mine with less than 350wtq in less than 10k miles. It's not that great and is cheap for a reason. A twin disk may cost twice as much, but that twin disk price includes a lightweight flywheel, will take more abuse, will shift more smoothly, will be easier to race, and will last longer. The extra cost is worth it.

So, exactly which twin are you running Warrtalon, and how is it holding up to the abuse?
