clutch ?
 
I am at the point of whatever, I've tried 3 of the some of biggest names in clutches, and I fried all 3 , clutshmaster stage 5 I fried it, exedy stage 3 fried, ACT stage 3 max extreme fried it also.
I just dynoed my car and I have 418NM translate to around 335ft lbs torque at 14 psi, I normally run 20psi who knows how much power. anyways, I am looking for an affordable clutch that can handle this power and my driving.
maybe I should try this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...215525759&rd=1

i like my exady stage 1 organic, does its job and doesnt slip even with moderately high compression. but thats just NA. turbo though, i wouldnt trust any other clutch than lsd. i already plan to buy my next clutch from him when the time comes. good guy to deal with, even helped me figure out some ---- i had no clue on.

Bust out the wallet. Big power cars that you want to 60 ft and take abuse need a twin disc just the nature of racing. My old boss was trashing act clutches every race until he switched to a mulller RIP old man died couple years back multi disc/custom flywheel set up. Car ran mid 9's on that clutch for 2 years never with one problem. Im running a exedy twin in my drag car which I cant say how I like it yet has the car is still being pieced together piece by piece but it'll do work thats for sure.

Doesnt matter single disc clutches can only handle so much power. Wanna watch a 500 hp civic run 11's. Buy a normal run of the mill clutch. Same car with a baller clutch will lay down the law. Been through this before there isnt away around it.
