ive got the act street clutch with a heavy duty pressure plate,%30 stiffer then stock,but engages quick,but i love it,i never like the stock clutches,but i also have the competition clutch flywheel 12lbs,perfect for daily driving,if you got the 9 lbs one,they dont recommend that for every day driving,but if you go back to stock clutch u might have issues with the turbo cause of the amount of power u have then stock cant handle,

but ive been seeing alot of people go with the act products

I was reading that the stock knew don't last to long and I have a comp clutch flywheel 9lbs I think I'm going to switch it back to a stock one and get rid of my light weight crank pulley too, so my idle doenst drop so fast between shifts, and i shift slow. Theres no point in having it I'm not racing I'm daily driving. Unless I can find a clutch out there that's doesn't catch so hard I don't mind the pedal weight I used to drive mustangs back in High school.

from what i herd 9lb flywheel isnt recommended for a daily driver,some people do it,but the revs drop alot faster then 12 lb flywheel,9lb is more for track and autocross,if you dont race or anything like that,then 12 lb would be perfect,not to hard at all,al i can say i know plenty of people that went with the act clutches and are very happy including myself,if you dont race or worry about power take the kit off,and go back to oem stuff

bascially if you wanna get with of the crank pulley and clutch,might as well go back to stock all together,theres no point in having a different clutch other then stock,if you dont do much with the car,

did you put this stuff on or did the car come with the stuff

I have the Exedy Stage 1 clutch, and an F1Spec flywheel. Engagement is a little low, but has held up fine, had the setup for about 3 years now and about 20K miles, and the past 6 months it has been turboed. Made 253whp and 249tq. Not as much torque as you, so that's something you might consider, but I have no complaints with my setup
