"I can honestly say i've searched 8 pages and found nothing. I typed in clutch. i only found 4 threads to be exact about what i was looking for but didnt find anything that significantly helped me."
Flame somewhere else. i even check the FAQ's.

I just installed my homemade turbo kit and my clutch is slipping like no other.
I'm in 1st gear and floor it around 5 thousand rpm...and the engine is revving like crazy and going no where.

I want my clutch to be rated at or near: 300ft/lbs of torque.
My car is a DD.

For you guys around these numbers, what clutches have you been using?

-How much was it?
-Where did you buy it?
-How is the pedal feel?
-Is it still grabbing after your abuse?

Please help me out, i'm leaning towards:
-Spec Stage 2. (about 300 bucks)
-Exedy Stage 2 thin.(waiting on a pm from advertiser)
-f1 or xtd but YOU get what you pay for. its a MAYBE. (cheap price. egay)
-or what do you suggest, please support your advise.

Any help is appreciated thanks.
And maybe for future reference, this can help any other's who might have the same question.

exedy stage 2 grabs hard and leaves a relatively stock pedal feel. i like it.

Also, look into gettin a new flywheel, might as will...

Illegal Garage. Done. I have it and abuse it. Everything is like new.

Search it.

dont forget about rps, that also make good stuff.
ive been using the rps(max) six puck. Grabs hard but its sprung so it could easily be used on the street.
-$399
-from phase2
-pedal feel is much stiffer thank stock (rps does make a "street" pressure plate as well... so its would have softer pedal and cheaper price if thats what you're looking for)
-stilll grabs hard. the clutch has been used in 3 drift events, driven to and from said events (vegas to socal), and about 2 weeks worth of daily use.

btw... the ebay clutch is a serously bad idea and would most likely be more work and colst than just getting a good clutch to begin with. (as you said, you get what you pay for)

i hope this is what you were looking for.
