lets hear them. I am shying away from McLoud (ok i know i mispelled that ) and looking and spec stg III with the new 6 puck design. Mianly because its $200 or so cheaper, seems to be just as strong and ease of installation.

Id love to hear your opinions.

ohh yea, this is going to be a fun car/ autox car.

 

I've been through many clutches (stock, Clutchnet Kevlar/Organic w/ LT4 PP, Clutchnet Kevlar/Bronze w/ LT4 PP, and on my second Star Stage III Carbon), and regret not going to the McLeod Street Twin to begin with. I have a feeling if I had, I would still be on THAT clutch, and would have had far less time/money invested in my clutch setup. Live and learn I guess.

People comment how expensive it is, but you must remember it also comes with a new flywheel, and I believe an adjustable master cylinder. It's a well proven clutch that WILL take the abuse. 10k miles on my first Star clutch = broken disc hub spring retainer and clutch pucks that were very worn out.

 

if you are really making 550hp, i would go with the street twin or a stage IV SPEC. a stage III is only rated to like 700ft-lbs of tq, if you decide to spray that car a stage III might slip. not sure what the street twin is rated at.

 

I use a spec stg.III w/fidanza fw and love it. Multiple 6K clutch dropps, and I drive it in traffic. It takes a little getting used to, but it's worth it. I have 475 rwhp& 500 rwtq.

 

Personally, my vote is for the Street Twin. That thing is freakin amazing. Grabby, yet smooth as butter. I love it. Just make sure you have slicks or your track times and launches will suffer. Hard to get off the line.

 

I am running the SPEC stage IV ceramic for two seasons and have had no problems. It takes 5K+ clutch dumps with out question and is acceptable on the street once you get used to it.
