okay my next big plan is to build a low 11sec to high 10sec b-series turbo car, which im sure many of u have done before. Now im trying to get some info on what components are use in a setup with that amount of power such as clutch system? im going to be using 24-25 inch slicks, so i dont want the clutch system to be slipping. if u need more info on what the set-up consist of please let me know.

Action 2MD 6 puck unsprung. finally giving up after 3 seasons and 500+hp now

~400whp 255tq, Comp clutch(6 puck) sprung. Nice for the power level but kind of a bitch on the street. Good clutch for the $

Pictures are fun

whats the price range for these type of clutch kits?

b20vtech

will the ACT HD presure plate/ 6 pug unsprung disc and flywheel work for these type of power?

Garage 808 Hatch

it may, but i had an ACT fail, well under its rated capacity.

I am using the ACT XTR6 w/ Xtreme Pressure Plate, seems to hold power now, I will see when I race with a tire.

My friend uses the same clutch that was re-padded and he has probably made 30 or so passes on 24" slicks and his clutch still holds running 550-600whp. I love this clutch because it grabs and the clutch pedal is still light, very easy to drive on the street.

Clutchmaster FX400 Carbon Kevlar here, Sprung hub. More than enough for road racing.

@ 400 ish whp

ACT Extreme duty PP with 4 puck unsprung. Ran forever. Just if you DD it, it tends to break the pucks up a little bit.

@ 550 whp. she held fine for an entire season.

I'm hoping for 450whp this summer and i went with a Competition Stage 4 which is a 6pk clutch.

Ran a Competition Clutch 1620 Kit with the standard pressure plate, no issues

eg:R

running a act hd w/ 6 puck disk, so far so good other than disk chipping

im also using this clutch. made passes last weekend with a 24.5x8.5" tire, no clutch slip making 425whp

is there such a clutch that will hold 450wtq and have a decent god damn pedal? thats NOT a twin Disk? My LSD motorsports clutch holds the power but the pedal is just rediculous!!

urbansi

at that tq level your going to be on a different level then a lot of people, considering that you will be making around 700whp or so, a single or twin is really going to be the best option(yes i know tq is the factor). i cant even imagine driving a FWD car on the street that had 450wtq.

Honestly i drive my buddys mustang that has 100whp less than my car and his clutch is a complete bitch compard to mine. The first time i atually let him drive my car he couldnt believe that i bitched about my clutch at all.

I have felt single and twins before and they are not that bad...

philafelman

how much torque are all you guys making?

B20luda

IM not making 700whp, i make aroud 520ishwhp...... 430wtq...

Had a CC 1620 with standard PP and it was slipping with BFG drag radials and 400wtq. Switched to Xtreme PP and 6 puck ACT. No slipping so far, but haven't ran the 25' slicks yet.

ACT XT-R6 unsprung at about 450whp, low's 11's and trapping 129 to 130mph on 24.5" slicks. The clutch disc wears FAST and it's hard on the flywheel and pressure plate as well.

eg:R

is a 6 puck disk chipping normal for turbo car?

I can also confirm the XTR6 wears out fast, my friend before he had his current one repadded went through like 3 or 4 discs prior to that. I probably should of looked at mine, I just had the tranny out but I got no money to deal with a clutch right now.

His is holding 420-430wtq and mine is holding 385wtq so far.

Action 2MS here! 3rd season, 460hp 360 ft lbs. No slipping with 136 mph traps!

blwn95civic

comp stage 5 sprung, 416whp and ~300 ft-lbs torque. Still, very streetable clutch with no chatter after it gets broke in and u learn how it likes to be disengaged. Never felt it even try to slip
