RAM HDX or Spec stage 1?....

well i need a clutch for my WS6. mods are in sig. i MIGHT run nitrous on it in a few months, but it will only be a few passes at the track. regardless of that i only wanna spend around 400 or less.

the HDX is rated to 400hp i beleive it says in summit racing, and the Spec is supposed to be till 400 hp, 480 ft lbs acording to TByrne motorsports. here they are for quick reference...

id like some thoughts and input on which one would be better for me. it will be beaten on here and there as well and like i said i will be racing it a good amount, but not too much going on under my hood so no crazy power except for possibly nitrous like i said. oppinions please....TIA

I have a RAM HDX. I like it. I got a good deal on it so it sealed the deal for me. It never chattered from day one and grips much better than stock. Pedal feel is exactly the same as stock. The clutch is made by Valeo... so I am willing to bet the pressure plate is stock, its just a bit better disc. Don't quote me on that though.

I honestly doubt youre gonna tell much of a difference between the two. They are both going to drive similar to stock. Just go for the one you can get a better deal on.

I have the HDX as well and like said above its great. They do use the LT4 pressure plate to increase the clamping force a bit.
