i would rather use the heavy duty for daily driving...

the clutch pedal was way more harder w/the extreme....

I hope this isn't for daily driving. An unsprung six puck clutch is pretty harsh.

I am using the Extreme PP with organic street disc. At first when It was installed it was SOOOOOOOO stiff. Now it has broken and I am very happy with this clutch. Feels strong and not overly stiff. My freind has a HD in his turbo SI, it feels like stock almost IMO. The act extreme PP is a great clutch IMO

z, acutally it is not breaking in, it is a decrement in clamp load. Just like all the rebuilds from stock units. As they wear, their clamp load slowly goes away. After a few more months, it will get even softer if you are really getting on it. I have a lot of experience with clutches. I dont claim to be the master, but hear me now, believe me later.
