Question Best clutch for DAILY driver, but will have high HP

Hey,

I'm looking for the best clutch that I can find, money isnt really an issue but ovbiously I don't want to spend it if I don't have to.

I'm going to be a daily driver, if I ever drag it, it won't be very often. But since i AM going to try and get around 400 HP++ when I'm done modding I need a very very good clutch.

So what I'm looking for is the strongest clutch there is thats very very strong
but is still very comfortable for my daily driving.

Here are the main clutchs I've seen talk about

HKS Twin
Exedy Twin
Exedy Twin Carbon(nobodys really mentiond this)
RPS Carbon-Carbon
RRE X
ACT Street
Clutchmasters stage 3-4
Cusco Twin

If you have any experience with any of these please let me know about it, how much HP, the pressure, etc

Thanks

I would say if you want it to last, go RPS. Plus, it only has a 10% increase in pedal weight, good for a daily driver.

I would recommend the ACT Heavy Duty street or 6 puck (more aggressive), with our light weight flywheel. Can't go wrong.

RPS Carbon-Carbon... Hands down the bests clutch on the market, especially for daily driving.

does anyone have the exedy twin that drives it daily? my friend told me to get this clutch if i ever replace my clutch because install is so expensive and this clutch will go for a long time. but i dont know how driveable it is. they installed it on the shop evo he used to work at after they melted the stock clutch. so i dont know if he has actually really driven it

It feels like stock but can it grab quicker if you are driving a little aggresive?
Do you have the white evo I see sometimes?

I think depending on what other mods i do, I might just go with the ACT then save up 3k and get an RPS carbon-carbon. If i end up saving a lot of money tho, then ill just get something expensive right off the bat.
