Which clutch hmmm - I know another post

I have been doing what I can to research and read up on other peoples posts and I think I have at least narrowed the crazy number of choices down to some selections. Its an expensive proposition to pick something I wont like...so I wanted to get feedback from those who have used these and recommendations based on my goals.

My 05 is currently close to 400HP and next year I am looking at changing cams and possibly upgrade to an FP green so not expecting to see over 500HP. This is my daily driver and I'm looking for something that will feel close to stock but know I will likely end up with a stiffer pedal. I'm not a fan of a clutch that has a super short full grip point. I don't want to have calf cramps nor do I want to hate having to get around parking lots or stop/go traffic. I don't drag race, I do get on it when challenged and might do some lite autocross in the future.

These are some that have come through my filter but I don't know which would be best for my requirements.
- ACT HD-M/Perf Street Sprung (ME2-HDSS)
- ACT Twin Disk Clutch Kit (T2S-M01)
- EXEDY Twin Organic Clutch Kit (EXE-MM022SDF)
- EXEDY Twin Cerametallic Clutch Kit (EXE-MM022HD)

Thanks
T2S-M01

Been on the ACT ME2-HDSS for some years now & it just works. No issues. Thought maybe had some lockout issues when i first got it installed but its been tracked & now just streeted

The new ACT twin maybe something to look at?

HDSS. Zero reason for those other clutches with your current power and your goals.

I use the HDSS with 640whp.

The ME2-HDSS is without a flywheel included so I presume the stock flywheel is what is recommended with it or should I be looking at replacing that also? I have 94k mileage and this will be the 3rd clutch. All previous where OEM. Should the OEM flywheel ever be resurfaced and if so, when?

Act twin drives smooth with barely any chatter and great driveability

Pretty sure i did the RRE flywheel (Road Race Eng)

I would replace your stock flywheel w/new if doing a new clutch pkg
