What's the best clutch/flywheel for evo 9 mr???
 

Hey guys. I'm thinkin it's time for a new clutch/flywheel. I'm soon to be at about 400 hp (maybe 350 to 360 whp). I have heard bad things about the ACT. Maybe Exedy or Carbonetic would be best???? What clutch/flywheel do you guys like and why? Thanks!

Hmm

Exedy Twin Disc Metallic.

I just installed the Quartermaster on my car and I'm in love. I can't believe how nice of a clutch it is even for a DD. I was anticipating a TON more chatter from word of mouth but honestly, it is NOT bad at all. I've heard a lot worse, with an Exedy twin, for example. I'm looking forward to trying it out at the track. It does screech every time you engage it thus far, but it's definitely something I can deal with. :beer:

ohhh my bad i just re read the post and relised its a MR.. i dono if the quarter master would work efficiently,, ive herd of AMS runing six pucks on the MRs but dont quote me on that

hdss with fidanza flywheel works great

+1. This is a great combo for the power levels that you will see. :beer:

cool. thanks guys. anyone have an opinion on the cardonetic???

I have done nothing but deal with ACT.. never had problems. had 4 ACT clutches on 4 different cars.. no problems at all.. that's my word.

ACT FTW! All my dsm buddies run ACT's and have NEVER had problems. We are using an ACT 2600 on a 600+ hp 1g talon and it has done great. Good for 10 sec passes all day long. My friends evo 8 has the ACT 2900 with ACT prolite flywheel and he loves it too. Done at least 100 launches and still doing GREAT. I'll be doing an ACT combo pretty soon on my car:)

btw I'm not saying the other clutches mentioned aren't any good. Just going by my experience with ACT {thumbup}

:) I researched all over and it seemed that the ACT Streetlite clutch kit and the Streetlite flywheel would suit me best. The only bad thing I've heard is the "high rpm lock-out", but that can be solved if the clutch is properly installed and everything is done professionally...I've heard. The price is high, but it's still much less than the Exedy. The install is as much as purchasing the new clutch also. I could of gone with something more fancy, but I know for sure that the ACT will do great. I just ordered the combo pack yesterday form lancershop. My Evo is slippin' like crazy and it's slow as hell.....Can't wait till' it gets here and the install is done. :D

ACT for dsm not Evos. I learned that the hard way.

every one is gonna have different problems with different parts. for me act has never done me wrong. just curiouse as to what happened so i know to look out for it

You are 101% right! The ACT is very popular, and the price is reasonable compared to Exedy. I don't think it's neccessary to spend so much more on the Exedy. The ACT is good enough and it's very strong.

act is the best so far........................no problems at all will recommend it:mitsu: :mitsu: :mitsu: {thumbup}
