Sorry... wasn't trying to be rude. The reason it's horrible advice is because you don't know how this individual is using his car. So saying something like "just get a twin disc and be done" or whatever is poorly thought out advice.

While the twin is a great clutch, it isn't amazing for everyone, and everyone's goals are different. Moreover, the clutch job on the Evo is both expensive, and complex, so it's not as though if you don't like it, you can just swap it out easily. Why suggest a $1500 product that might work, when you could've simply asked for some more information about the user, and then perhaps made an appropriate recommendation based on that?

No worries... in the end, we're all just trying to help each other out.

The stage 2 CC is awesome I have it and love it. Very easy to drive and grabs hard when you want it to. I paid $440 for mine so $410 is a great deal !

No problem. I often post from work and I dont always correctly convey my messages or post the whole thought process. Im also coming from the LS1 world where every tom dick and harry on every forum is driving the hell out of their car and always looking for more power, so overbuilding is normally the way to go. I will apoligize to the OP for making a blanket statement however. Personally I have the CC twin disc and love it. I daily drive my car but it has quite a bit more torque.

I got the Comp Clutch Stage 2 and I wasnt all that impressed. Followed 500 mile break in and everything. I put down a little over 400 to the wheels. I feel like the friction of the clutch isnt fully grabing at WOT or aggressive launches. Maybe its my fault for picking the stage that is at the tolerance for my power levels. Maybe stage 3/ six puck?

But i dont wanna devate from the OP, just playing devils advocate.
