Evo x Xtreme twin plate carbon clutch

Is anyone running a Xtreme twin plate carbon clutch? How do you like it? Pros/cons? Would you recommend for a daily driven 300awkw Evo X?

How much torque does the car make? Sounds like a way overkill clutch for the application.

Thanks for the reply, car makes 400nm torque and 240kw at all four. I asked my mechanic's advice and this is what he recommended.
I agree it seems to be a huge overkill , I'm looking at making more power in the future but nothing over 300kw.
at $1900 it hard to justify.
I was leaning more towards a Xtreme heavy duty organic clutch and resurface the existing flywheel.
any recommendations will be appreciated

that's definitely overkill. No need for a twin disc clutch if you car is only making 400nm.

400Nm is 300ftlbs American. So, you literally don't even need an upgrade clutch. If your stock clutch is worn out, an ACT HDSS (HD pressure plate with organic disc) is all you need. And that clutch will be fine for what you can safely make on the stock motor, which is about 400wtq (where the stock motor is safe). That would be about 540Nm.

Hell, the stock clutch will hold 400wtq.

yea, it held 400wtq in my car for about 20k after it was upgraded to that level.
