500+HP daily clutch?
 

Been awhile since I made a post on here.
Anyways.

When I originally bought my car the previous owner was trying to make the car a borderline street legal drag car.

which is totally badass and all. But I need to tone it down since I like being able to drive my car LOL.

>basic stuff:
-Built 2.0
-Bushur stage 3 head
-Manley forged crank
-S3 cams
-Shep indestructible t-case
-Quartermaster 8 leg clutch
-Speed density tune
-OEM trans
-MAP EF3
-1200cc DW injectors.

so yeah.
Car is clearly setup to put down serious power.
I'm just not that serious about making power yet.

The current quartermaster that is in it now is a motherrrrrfuuuu***r to daily.

What are some good aftermarket clutch options for daily use?

I would put an exedy HD twin in it. Great clutch.

I had a act hdss but it burnt and i went with a hdss pressure plate and a ceramic 6puck sprung disk.

Im just now getting used to the bite it has. But let me say. It launches great and it eliminated all my high rpm lockout issues.

It is uncomfortable but i daily the bish.

Reason i ditched the hdss is because i was told the material overheats and warps the pressure plate causing shifting issues. So i went ceramic

For the most part I like my exedy triple(making 560ish hp). I don't DD it, but I think I could with this clutch.
It has an on/off type engagement which can make it a PITA if you hit traffic, also a bit noisy but nothing unbearable. Also gotta watchout for uneven wear with the 1st disc if the car is gonna see alot of stop and go.

I have the exedy twin HD and it is very streetable little bit of chatter but not bad and you can always convert to a triple when you make more power:D

ACT HDSS with sprung organic disk is one viable option. abacus says that the 6-puck sprung is streetable and can take launches.

exedy triple I had it on my last 2 evos and good and will put on one soon on my 3rd evo I just got


had the one u have on before and HATED IT specially for daily FML lol

The 6puck act launches well and the material allows for lower temperature during slip/launch and extending pressure plate life.

do at least twin maybe triple plate clutch

For 500 whp do the twin. Tripple is way much for that power range. I have one in my car and i love it, but only upgraded being i am going larger setup in the near future.

I have a nearly 500 if I crank up the boost .... the twin disk is plenty .... I have about 100 450whp launches on mine without issue.

yeah, no need for a triple with <600wtq.

DD and multi disc = not good. An unsprung clutch to daily drive is harsh

Unsprung is not necessarily harsh. I have driven an Evo with an unsprung organic single disc, and it was totally streetable. I've also driven Exedy triples on Evos, and they were totally streetable as well. However, TRE says that unsprung is bad for the gearbox, and multidisk where each disk has its own splines is bad for the input shaft.

Exedy twin has sprung discs for our car..
