I think it absolutely BLOWS that there isn't a decent clutch that'll last 20k+ miles for the guys who aren't going ***** to the wall (225-300whp).

Competition Clutch = Fail
Clutch Masters I've read good AND bad.
ACT is a possibility but no one has had one long enough it seems.

Sure there are the 4 and 6-puck options and twin-discs, but for those of us who don't want the harshness of those or have the wallet, there really aren't any known options.

Has anyone tried Spec? That's the last company I know of that's not had any posts that I've seen.

My f1 sh__ racing clutch finally is going. I had it for almost a year and been boosted on it since september. I only have a stage 1 but my stock lasted long than this. Sucks this had to happen tonight when my appointment to get tuned is saturday. Hope somehow i still can if they pull from 4th gear mostly. idk

I really wanted the ACT kit.I decided to get cc stage 4 since it was the only clutch I could get quick and got a great deal on it. Im a little scared it will fail on me with everything that i read on it but wish me luck that it wont
