Default clutch question

Sorry if this is a repost i did some looking and didnt find to much on the clutch master. i have a 91 integra and putting down just under 400whp and i have a act 6puck sprung on now. when at the track it slips really bad in four gear and sometimes in the others. i was lookin into the clutchmaster fx500 for a replacement. is that a good option and if so should i go with the four or six puck? i plan on putting down 450-500whp next year or so and would like to keep the same clutch. it is daily driving but not to worried about petal feel. thanks in advanced.

Im making about 435whp and 320tq right now with a stage 5 CC clutch 4 puck unsprung, it has quite a rough engagement due to being unsprung.

You should be fine with a stage 5 cc 4 puck sprung though, i believe that they also have a upgrade PP for their stage 5 too

the Spec Stage 3+ w ould be my choice. It has the highest torque capacity that still retains good drivability.

If it is anything like there old 4 pucks i wouldn't run it. I've used there stuff for a while and had no problems but as soon as i made around 400ish on a 4puck i had from them i had the same problems you are having right now. Now that it looks like they re-designed everything could be an indication of good things.... maybe.
