it seem's a popular consensus that Competition Clutches are the most popular from what I've seen around here.(Just from what I've seen!) What made you lean towards hks?

Ultimately, the Comp twin snapped my clutch fork in half. It has happened to 3 other X's that I know of. The Quarter Master hydraulic release saved my trans!

I put the MHI 18k on about 2000 miles ago, without updating the tune. Not a huge deal because the turbo's are very similar to stock. HOWEVER, it's getting a tune immediately after the new clutch is installed. I'm going with Proven Power in Tampa if anyone knows the shop. I'm going to swap in a competition clutch stage 3 or 4. Likely the 4 because I'm anticipating pushing up on the 400HP mark if I tune it to peak power. I'm probably going to need a new flywheel I imagine too.

So my question to you all is this. If money were no object and you were going to open your transmission up, what all would you replace/upgrade at 45k miles? I'm just wanting to make sure I'm not missing anything. I'd love to have a bullet proof 400HP transmission

Current list is...
Clutch
Flywheel(Open to recommendations)

Thanks in advance everyone!

** EDIT ** It was asked a couple times, I swapped all of the parts in my signature into the car at around 400 miles on the odometer. I realize now that the title is a bit misleading!
Honestly I had the exedy stage 2 and I never liked it I couldn't wait for it to go out on me, recently I just broke in my ACT HD and it is great it just makes the car drive and pull so much better than my exert ever did

Curious, my experience has been the exact opposite. It didn't have any chatter, the clutch feel was firm but manageable, and it never gave any issues until now. Either way, finger's crossed this comp clutch doesn't break the fork.
