Interested as well, looking for an alternative to these expensive twins and singles with heavy pressure plates and an aggressive disc

i have one that came in my car. 340whp/305lb/ft, hasn't slipped at all. doesn't lockout of 1-2 at high rpm shifts

for a basic bolt-ons car you'll be fine with it, i have no quarrels. doesnt chatter on start, grabs fine.

i've had mine for almost 20k miles now and the clutch had 6k on it when i got the car, never been to the track and never launched so i can't speak there

if you're aiming for more than 400whp and/or track/drag the car, i'd get something else. it's nothing special, just a nice alternative to stock

^guessing thats what u put down with this clutch?


thanks demon sounds like its a good clutch, says its good for a solid 424lbs of torque, i dont launch/drag often so this sounds like a good choice. 1 question tho- is it any heavier or still like stock feel?

i had one in before i went to my Comp clutch. It wasnt bad at all, held some power 480hp/369lbs, and never had any lock out issues. Shifted great at high rpms, pretty stiff pedal but not too bad. only thing didnt much care for was reverse(would shudder ) but all around not too bad.

I'm at 360tq/360hp, about 33k miles and a dozen launches and mine is still holding. I get SLIGHT lock from first-second above 4500rpm's. It is rated for 400hp/tq max

I ran this clutch as a stock replacement with bolt ons making 330whp/330tq and absolutley loved it! It had great engagement and excellent pedal feel. The car was driven hard on the the street and had maybe 20 or so drag strip passes, as well as a few road course track days, and unfortunately only lasted about 5k miles. Its expensive but go with an exedy twin and be done with it.
