I have an ACT Heavy Duty Pressure plate, street disc, and street-lite flywheel.

I'm boosting my b16 hoping to make at least 250 whp. You think i'll be having problems?
I thought the street disc was rated to like 225 torque or something.

I try and convince people of this as ive been on the losing side more then the winning side when it comes to street disks holding power. The ratings for clutch kits are generally what the pressure plate is rated for. In general if u have enough pressure, it will keep the disk from slipping, however over time and at high rpm under boost, the organic material just doesnt cut it like a metallic disk. Not a high enough coefficient of friction.
However the Yellow is sex and definately on the jdm side.

im not sure on the offical holding power but i hit 226wtrq figure that with the 15% drivetrain loss commonly found with frontwheel drive. i was seeing 260-265flywheel torque. so if that helps your welcome.

ive seen tons of people using the street disc it worked great, friends coupe holds with it on 9psi sc61, b16a2 drove with it for a year or so til the tranny exploded.

If LSD could find me a clutch. I'm sure he can get you one. My quote was around $250 or so and it was a six puck. he also has a flywheel for my car for $180. When I had my Mustang I had an ACT shatter on me after the 500 mile breakin (515 miles or so) I don't trust them at all.

---- act, ---- ACT ---- ---- ---- ACT, my frist car had one, and it burnt out, so i figured, eh maybe it was just its time. so i got another one because people said they were good, street strip setup NOT MORE THAN 6000 MILES LATER, i cant ------ race on it cuz its slipping like a bitch and smells like hell, ------ 6000 miles, and i dont sit on the clutch at stop signs or lights or any of that stupid ----. the car made around 200hp and probabaly 170ish tq. and it was burnt to ----, ---- act. they cant take WOT shifts for ----.

alot of dsm guys seem to use it just fine,act 6 puck on awd puts your nuts into your mouth.

intresting? mine was in for 15 months of daily driving stop and go freeway you name it. probly put 20K on it easy. guess you win some and lose some. i jsut ordered a 6puck with an xtreme plate for my project car.

oh i also find that break in periods on things like that are pointless. so if it scattered at 515. you could have solved the issue 514 miles before hand by droppign the hammer a good'n.

Wow, lots of different opinions in here. We'll I'm looking for a clutch/flywheel combo soon and I think I'll give LSD clutches a shot, mike seems like a good guy and his products are a good price. If it breaks, I get what I paid for.

I do sell the ACT Clutch kits, but everyone on HMT runs our Clutch specialties kits which get the job done just as well and keeps some cash in your pocket to take the girlfriend out
