Excedy or Carbonetics??
im gonna bump this because i would like more feedback/opinions on this... i am in considering an exedy or carbonetics...i will be making around 400whp... for street and track. exedy triple or carbonetics twin? noise, pedal feel, and strength.
Well the clutch is a bit hard as compared with HKS Twin Plate GD MAX...but it gets a little better after driving..
As for the performance it holds great!
I like it...
Previously i had burned 2 HKS Twin Plate GD MAX and not on this sort of power...
But this clutch is holding up pretty well!

I've got a few friends with Evo 9's running the Carbonetics triple.
One thing I've noticed is when dragging, they do have a hard time shifting second. They are not mis-shifting... they say it just butts when trying to pull it and they are pulling hard.
I'm not sure if this issue is directly related to the clutch, but just pointing it out. Could be an installation issue, or something else. I dunno.
How are you Carbonetics users finding the shift to second at high rpms?

I do not have any issues with the second or any gear...May be it has somthing to do with the 6 speed transmisson...

but how did u manage to burn two of them and for how long did you use them?
I was looking at getting the Twin Carbonetics a few weeks ago, but after reading some of the horror stories about them I went with a Cusco.
From what I have seen I would stick with Exedy/Daikin.

I have the HKS GD max and the pedal gets all grabby and hard after a couple of runs...won't recommend it for anything above 350whp. If your'e interested in carbonetics though, there are three different clutches being offered by them i.E soft type (CM23236-14), standard type (CM23230-14) and also the type R (CM23235-14) . I believe the one that 'Evo 7' is using is the standard type.
