New Boosting Clutch Options from ACT!
Well, we have worked with CC for quite sometime to offer a VERY competitive edge in drivetrain options for boosted 2AZs. Now ACT has taken some of this to a whole new level! ACT now offers 15 different clutch configurations for the 2AZFE! They now offer 3 different full faced clutches that harness tons of power!!!
Their entry level clutch (TY4-HDMM) is a full faced disc, offers a 32% more clamp load over stock and offers TQ capacity of 390 ft/lbs out of a full faced disc! So for those who do not want to rock the pucks on the street, it is not required.
Their next step up on a full faced disc (TY4-XTMM) offers a 70% more clamp load increase over stock and offers a whopping 504 ft/lbs of capacity! This is what would normally be a Stage 5 from CC! Once again, BIG power does not require a puck style!
They also have the what we call the murderer! (TY4-XXMM) offers a 87% more clamp load increase over stock and offers a whopping 553 ft/lbs of capacity! OMG!
Kudos to ACT for stepping their game up!

Do you think you think there will ever be an ACT flywheel for our cars?
I havnt come across any for our car only CC flywheels......will a CC flywheel bolt up and run w/o an issue w/ an ACT Clutch?

87% clamping load increase!?! talk about a work out, my leg would cramp like a mo fo driving in traffic!
There is no way that they won't affect your thrust clearance. It's pushing against the flywheel nearly twice as hard.
