Stage 3 6 puck style (mix of carbon & ceramic) can hold like 650 rwhp, and they make all the way upto a stage 5 unsprung iron disk which is just insane. Are you looking for daily drivability, how much rwhp u making?

 

will about 600 after the tt setup but i'll be looking for another clutch later on to handle 1500. so stage 3 will do for now.

thanks again

 

 

Im sure im not th only one who wants to know this but what are you gonna have that can make anywhere near 1500 hp

 

i would think itwould be cheaper just to buy the best one for 1500 hp, rather than buying two...

 

The Street Twin is really the obvious choice. Do a search and you will find that there is almost no one who has been disatisfied with it. Not true for the alternatives. It's expensive but worth it. Do it once, do it right. When it finally wears out, McCleod will rebuild it like new for $375. Great piece.

My next clutch will be a street twin but I have an RPS clutch now thats holding up to my power just fine.

 

it would be VERY COSTLY to get to 1500, if you even could

 

Yeah 1500 is a bit high. I mean the most of the top supra's, are in the 1000 hp range. That is with a insane amount of boost. But if you have that kind of money than go for it. Also if you reach that kind of hp i would say forget the clutch and go with an auto. I would think that when you get the 600 hp range you will realize how much hp that actually is.
