Clutch for 300whp DD?
I'm basicly done with my motor, except for the clutch. The problem I have is thus:
Its going to be my main car (95 EX) - daily driven to school/work (2 days are in *heavy* stop/start traffic). I shift rather slow, I just don't want an 'on/off' sort of clutch. I want a clutch that will last a while and not destroy the flywheel (looking at a chomoly ACT streetlight), but still hold power. Its also going to be roughly 250wTQ (up to 300wTQ if it lasts a year), since its a D16.
I'm really not sure if I want something like an ACT XTSS, or an Exedy 3-puck. I'd get a double-plate if funds were unlimited, but atm I only have enough cash in case something blows up. I'm hoping for the impossible, holding power/streetablility/longevity - what would fit that the best for under $400?

Re: Clutch for 300whp DD? (HiProfile)
Puck clutches will chatter regardless of if they have sprung center. If you are driving daily then try to find a clutch that has a solid contact area instead of separate pucks. Twin disks are nice but they have a really harsh engagement.
Competition clutch has a kevlar sprung clutch look into that.
