Spend the extra dough and get a twin disk. If I had the money I would get an Exedy in a heart beat! And even though a ton of DSM'rs run an ACT 2600/2900, almost all of the faster ones (11.0 and faster) have switched to a twin disk (Quartermaster or Exedy). The reason why ACT is so popular is because it holds the power, is cheap, and are (somewhat) reliable. But they do not work nearly as well in an Evo. I think the clutch disk itself is too heavy, although I am not positive if that is the reason or not. Anyways, save your self the trouble as mentioned and do it right the first time!
I say keep the Evo as is (if you can afford it with the MKIV of course), run the ***** out of it with the 35R (people are making some GOOD times with the HTA!) and then switch to a 42R once you max this out. One of my buddies went 10.3 in his HTA-35'd 2g Talon last week. And it has more in it! But this is all just what I would do...
I haven't looked into them for an Evo, but I think they are still just single disks, no? Do some research on it, but I think you will find that people are having the most success with twin disks. Are they more money, yes. But they are worth it!
Truthfully if i had the money i would definatly do it. But unfortunatly school, bills, and giving my parents money to contribute to the household holds me back from a loottttt. I do everything on a budget because I only believe in paying cash haha

Marsh, I'll have to look into Exedy. Never gave them much thought. Always viewed them as more of a knock-off vendor/manufacturer, but I may have to switch my views around.

if only i could afford a twin disk Truthfully if i had the money i would definatly do it. But unfortunatly school, bills, and giving my parents money to contribute to the household holds me back from a loottttt. I do everything on a budget because I only believe in paying cash haha

I do everything on a budget because I only believe in paying cash haha But I am just telling you won't like an ACT. SO even though you would be saving money, is it worth the frustration? I plan on getting a twin disk over the winter. Start saving now!
