Default What clutches are you 500whp+ guys using?

RPS just quoted me over $3k for a Twin plate, and from what I can tell, the less expensive TILTON isn't going to hold the power I need it to. It doesn't seem like Exedy makes a Twin plate for the H22, and I could find very little info on OS Giken.
This is really the last un-named part in my project, and I know my Exedy 3 puck is not up for the task.

I had a ATS clutch flywheel combo for over a year on 12psi. I made 330whp on it. I have a clutchmaster's stage 5 in my car now and i hate it. It is to soft. Im going to buy a action clutch I think.

any reason why you think tilton won't hold the power? And $3k is good for a carbon carbon clutch, which the RPS is

For an H22A you have a choice of Competition CLutch Twin, Tilton or Clutchmasters twin. I like the COmpetition Clutch myself. Exedy does not make one for an H22A

Wow....thanks for all the info everyone. Boostfed.com, are you able to get all of those?
I think I am a taker on that Competition Clutch: $1250.00

The Competition Clutch Twin Disc series is the preferred assembly for the professional racer. This unit delivers uncompromised reliability and performance. Recommended for import cars delivering 500-800 horsepower at the wheels. This assembly is completely rebuildable and components are avialable seperately.
