ok i have a 90 240 with a beat to hell ka24e so it's coming out very soon and being replaced with a ka24de which will get a turbo and my goal is just like 250whp so what clutch would be best for that?
thanks

anyone?

The best one's I've heard that money can buy are of the carbon-fiber type. They are lighter, so less rotational mass. And they react very well to heat, getting stronger as they heat up.

Of couse, they can be extrememly expensive, so are usually only used by racing spec vehicles.

For a daily driver? Just go to a reputable company (ACT) and get a clutch mated to your torque needs.

I went with rps and the pressure plate didn't align with the pegs on the flywheel. Had to turn it until only the holes aligned and the pegs didn't to actually get it to bolt on. Feels good though.
