your correct sir, and thata the same clutch I'm running in my turbo Integra. I love it, and it's been holding up to 10-11 psi of boost like a champ. i do get the occasional clutch chatter taking off or shifting gears if I try to feather it out, but after a little bit of driving on this clutch, you'll get to know how to engage and disengage without chatter.

well what is the advantage of each?

will a sprung hold boost just as good as an unsprung...i mean, will it grab "quicker" or what?

both will hold boost just as good. each is rated for a certain number of HP. at most you probably need a stage 3, as ACT likes to call it. the springs just help release the pressure.- which helps with the "chattering" of clutches.
