I'm looking into the CCI Twin Disc Part# 4-8026-C
since my car is no longer a commuter Im switching to E85 and shooting for 650-700WHP So I know I need to step it up. Are these considered "Plug-n-play" And i'm wondering what the engagement feels like as well as clutch pedal pressure.

 

I have never been impressed with CC aside from their customer service. They just seem too rough for a street car. I absolutely love my Exedy twin disc. Then again, you do pay for it...

 

Oh **** yeah! My reaction when I looked one up and saw the price tag!

 

Horsepower doesn't kill clutches, torque does. Torque is what matters when it comes to selecting a clutch. That said, a Comp Clutch 6 puck sprung is rated 250% over stock, which is roughly what, ~350? I can't give you a direct comparison, but my car has a CC 6 puck sprung (and I was only putting down ~170ft/lbs, rated load capacity 220), and I've driven a couple cars in your power range with twin discs. The twin discs engage smoother, but also require more leg strength. I wouldn't want to drive on one in metro rush hour. I don't know what the torque load capacity of the twin discs are, but I treat clutches like I treat injectors - leave 20% headroom when picking which one you want.

 

cc 6 puck can handle 408ftlbs.

 

According to what? The documentation on their site only says "250% over stock", which obviously varies. Not that I don't believe you, I'm just looking for some kind of source for your numbers.

 

Real street performance lists the small spline version as having a 350lb rating and the big spline version as having a 400lb rating. I would check cc's actual site but it doesnt play nice with my phone

 

I've driven a couple differant cars with a comp twin disc. its not bad at all once you get used to it. at your power goal I'd definitely go with one. I do agree that it would be a birch if you got stuck in traffic lol.

 

hahahahahahahahaha i made the same face LOL

 

ACT XTG6 is what I run and its not bad. Still a 6 puck and half the price of a CC twin

 

I run the Exedy twin in my Integra . If you daily the car i would advise you to stay with a single disc unit . The pedal effort is low and there is no slip . Think on and off . They are tricky to drive in traffic and at times make you look like a damn fool . Your power goals are lofty for a single disc unit though . It is all about the torque here . To make 700whp its going to take 400+ lbs of torque through the entire rev range . You may have no choice here .

 

You get what you pay for. I loved my twin disc Exedy when I had it. Street driven and everything.

 

This is what I have been using with not one issue at my current 526whp. But im afraid what would happen if I put some real HP on it. They claim 495ft lbs tq and 600hp

 

twin discs are awesome, the quick disengagement is great for shifting quickly

Stamped steel pressure plates that have been wound up to hold big torque suck IMO, the pressure plates flex and in some cases make shifting hard.. Not worth it IMO, I have a CC twin in 2 cars and they have been great.

 

Cali, you also were using stock bore and stroke. You entered a different world. I guess all you can do is try the cheap stuff and see where it gets you. There isn't anything in the world like the satisfaction of doing things twice. Wait what?

 

This unspring 4 puck is gonna act just like a twin as far as engagement. In fact, the twin may be smoother. lol

 

A twin is a LOT smoother than a 4 puck unsprung.

 

I spoke to the tech support rep (josh) after I fried mined from doing a burn out incorrectly.

 

How do you do a burnout incorrectly?

 

Probably granny shiftin', not double clutchin' like he aughta.

 

Riding the clutch like a pansy.

 

doing it before the water box.

 

I'm sorry what kind of clutch are you using in you're current build?

 

burning out in 1st

 

I like to launch it in 5th!!
