Just installed turbo into GSR and I need a new clutch!! suggestions?
Like the title states. I just installed a .63 garret t3/t4 turbo with rev hard log manifold, 2.5in dp, tial 38mm wastegate set at 7 psi. The car is tuned with dsm 440's and running great! (my first turbo import so its really exciting to hear and feel the power a turbo car makes!) anyways I still have the stock clutch and its not holding up the torque so I have been babying it so it will last for atleast another month before I can get enough money for a new one. I was wondering which clutches u guys would suggest. Ive heard good things about act clutches and was wondering what type would be good for street/strip set ups. All brands of clutches are welcome to suggestion though. Information will be greatly appreciated thanks!

get the clutch that holds greater than the amount of torque you are making. im guessing you're making no more than 200 ft/lb of tq.
so as the person above me stated, seach for people making the same power as you (or using the same setup) and find out what clutch they are using.

Im running 10psi on my car, and either
ACT HDSS (heavy duty) Tad harder then stock pressure on the foot
ACT XTSS (xtreme duty) Pretty rough then stock pressure on the foot
Both has street disc.
Im running XTSS though, just in case, I may need to turn up the boost more down the road.

Alright so ACT xtss with street disc is lookin pretty good. Anyone have experience with any other manufacturers? Just want to get some opinions on the different types.

I had an CM Stg5 but burnt that out really quick. I am currently running an ACT XTR6 w/ Extreme Pressure Plate & ACT Streetlite Flywheel, works real nice, pedal feel is a little more but it has nice engagement.
