I've owned a 4 Puck, 6 Puck, 6 Puck w/ Spring....

I love the 6 Puck ACT over the 4 Puck Version.

my 6 puck ACT ate through the PP and flywheel within about 8000 miles. well, the chatter that was experienced wit hthe pucked clutch, i elimited by revving and slipping it higher... apparently that'll wear out a pucked clutch way before any organic.

so if you get it, prepare to have some "not smooth" driving or else it'll rip through your flywheel fast. and since you have a lightweight flywheel, im sure it'll be even more rough.

i suggest getting an act XTSS. bet clutch, and i'll never run anythign else in any honda i own.

unless you're making atleast 350ft/lb at the flywheel something like that is overkill. and im assuming you're running a turbo setup or you're making a dedicated drag car and looking for long term reliability.

for this guy, stay away frlom pucks.

tell us more about your setup. if you plan on just dragging this car or only driving it on the weekends and putting about 200-250 ftlb of torque to the ground, go for the 4 or 6 puck, they're cheap and hold a lot of tq. But if this is your daily driver stay the hell away from any puck type clutch and spend the extra 50 bucks on a sprung organic disc. get an act hdss or xtss some other type of sprung disc, your wheels will be hoppin over the ground with a puck type clutch; they're just not ideal for the daily driven street.
