Exedy Stage 2 actually has 2 SKU's in the system. I know cause I had both. The higher rated clamp force (handle more HP) one has a 40% less life because the friction plate is shaved to hold more power. The one that is rate with with less clamp force (handle less power) is not shaved therefore has more life, but can't handle the HP.
RPS Max Street Disc is slightly heavier than a BMW M3 clutch, so I'd say 2x stiffer than the Exedy stage 2, but Exedy's hybrid pucked disc's have less modulation (harsher engagement). So the RPS Max street disc is heavier but engages more smoothly due to having better modulation. For the value, RPS is a good brand is what I am saying.
Now if you want stock like feel and ability to handle the HP, you need to go dual friction discs.... (Gotta pay to play.)
Never tried a CM FX's, so I can't comment on those.
