Clutch recommendation for LS-T
My LS-T is currently making 281whp, 234wtp. I need to upgrade the clutch and possibly the flywheel. Running stock ITR clutch and FW and it's slipping like crazy. What recommendation and which stage? This will be both street and track usage, so probably won't go too crazy with the non-sprung ones.
I've been told to go for CC stage 4. How's its pedal pressure and grab compared to stock ITR one? What about the CC flywheel? Any good going this light for a boosted application?
Thanks.

Re: Clutch recommendation for LS-T (Project X)
Competition clutch from xenocron, cheap and perform excellent.
Im running a CC stage 5 with 4 puck unsprung, it engagement is harsh but expected from a 4 puck unsrpung. I would recommend a stage 5 with 6 puck sprung, that should be able to daily without a problem.
Some people will say that a stage 5 is overkill but in my experience i had a stage 3 before and if i would start again. I would just get a stage 5 and get it over with, no chance it would slipped until a great amount of torque.
I drove mine in traffic sometime, the only problem is you have to keep the rpm at like 2k or the car would shake but i expect a 6 puck sprung to be much better than mine.
EDIT: The pedal feel on the CC will be identical to stock pedal pressure

Re: Clutch recommendation for LS-T (LShatchie)
Like StolenTeg said... go with a Competition. I have a stage 5 with the sprung 4 puck and its amazingly streetable. I suggest going with that one because I know you'll want to turn it up down the road. Pedal pressure is like stock unless you go with the upgraded PP.
