has anyone tried any of the fidanza clutches? The 3.2 seems like a good buy at $665, and with a resurfaced flywheel and install it couldnt run more than $900. Seems like a good deal considering it says its rated up to 511ft. lbs. I think I'll be looking into it once I'm putting more power down.

But then again, it's much more nice if u can save some for the Exedy. Thats what I did. I got patience thats why I got the clutch that I wanted. U won't be sorry and (maybe) u can thank me later. Just my .02

I read a lot about lock out at high rpms and some people say they love the ACT...

My car made 364hp and 346tq....my stock boost controller was maxed and ****in everything up so i bought the AMS mbc... so im hoping almost 400hp when i get it re tuned n the boost up.

The clutch that is going out in my car is the exedy stage 1.. the clutch seemed like it was a good clutch i went to the track n ran low 12s b4 cams...but i think im over powering that clutch now.

What clutch should i get????
Quarter Master Twin Disc...go to www.devotuning.com

is the problem with the act lock at high rpms cause of the restrictor pill in the line?
having the pill removed makes a difference?

If you have the money for the twin get it, you can rebuild it and it will save you in the long run

For the purpose that you are wanting to use the car for I think that the Exedy stage II would be a good fit.

I do, and I love it. Easy to drive, and grabs like a mother when it needs too.
