advice, clutch, Spec mini twin clutch

Any body with some reviews on this clutch..I did some research and couldn't find much feedback from users with this clutch on this car...

If you are using this clutch, how many miles has it lasted so far, how much torque do you have?

any and all opinions would be helpful

Thanks.

you get what you pay for. for the extra couple of hundred dollers id go with the exedy twin. u cant go wrong with that. im currently running an exedy triple and love the clutch more then anything. the pedal still feels like stock so im sure the twin does also

spec is absolutley the worst company ever. I've ran the super twin and went through 5 of them. I have emails and everything for proof. Always a defect from "manufacturing" Car was down for 6 months. They switched me to the mini twin, drove it for a whole 6 miles and the brand new hydraulic tob blew. Down for another month. Finally gave up and bought a exedy twin. Spec promised me money back for the downtime and refund the money for the clutch. Never heard from them again. I probably spent over 10k with all the BS and run around they put me through.

seems like everyone i know or hear about with them says that theres a "manufacturing" problem with them and they never get there money back either. thats just a company making a bad name for themselves over and over that will soon be out of business at this rate

This clutch is HORRIBLE!!! Already took a dump on me with only 300 miles on it !! horrible horrible horrible. Taking it out of my car tomorrow, and rebuilding the tilton carbo to tilton cerematallic. I guess another bad story to add to the mix.
And for those 300 miles was my breaking in period still!

Lol....I had to....It was already ordered in by the time all the reading was done on this clutch. I had been without a car for 2 weeks and really couldnt wait any longer. I just said to hell with it, i just need in a clutch to start driving my damn car around town. But, knowing that it lasted 300 miles? lol wth.
No good... All i've heard is 95% bad things about spec!
