final decision on clutch

So im about to order a new clutch and i cant decide between the Exedy stage 2

organic or the Act 6 puck Sprung. the thing im worried about with the act is that for

daily driving is it going to wear out on its own cause its not ment for daily driving.

any advice would help and only could spend around 600

I just put a Fidanza Flywheel, ACT 6-puck Unsprung (he he..) and their Extreme Pressure Plate in my Evo.

I also can do pretty nasty 4-wheel burnouts...

And, I can also blow up my transfer case almost at will because of the unsprung clutch.

But, I really like the 6-puck. shifting is really easy because you can rev-match really easy because of the light components.

If your staying with 300whp-350whp ACT is the way to go. Why spend 3x that much for what? 35R combos and stuff that is revved high 8k the carbons are great, but just like turbos you size for the application.

In that HP range, i agree with the ACT. I bought it and installed it and went good. It feels great, and very agressive clamp load, but still ok on daily driving.
