Default Drivability of Clutches

Ok guys i am making about 265whp with my turbo b16, t3 .42/.48 and my stock clutch is just struggling like no other. My question is what clutch should i go with to have the best combination of street drivability but also good holding strength for the drag strip? I would like people to compare a 4-puck, 6-puck and other street clutches in categories of drivability, how long they will last, and how they hold the power. THanks guys.

ACT Hit up Pro Street for some deals.

For you, I'd just get an ACT Xtreme duty with street disc... little stiff, but will hold the power, and good driveability.

Action 2MS. this is what i run on the street and at the strip. Very easy to drive and holds like no other.

If you drop it hard, the dashboard sounds like its going to explode

I've got the ACT xtream PP along with the street disk, it is a little stiff at first, but after you get used to it, the way it grabs and the peddle feel is awesome.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I just got my ACT XTSS installed today. Yes it is a bit stiff when you first start using it, but the engagement is awesome.
