Clutch?!? LS/Vtec supercharged del sol ??
Currently i have a ls vtec swap in my 93 del sol running 9 lbs with a jackson racing supercharger kit self tuned probably pushing slightly over 200 whp. Amazingly enough ive gotten one full season out of the exedy oem replacement clutch.
This season i have purchased a 96 spec integra type r lsd transmission (brand new), and i am planning on running the stepper pulley and going up to 12lbs of boost, aem water injection, and a dyno tune with hondata. aiming for around 260 whp and 180 ft lbs, this car is an everyday driver so im looking for a clutch that is good for the street but also can take some 1/4 mile track runs. Everyone knows the power band on a turbo set up is much different than a supercharged b18 so please if you have an answer dont relate it to a turbo vehicle.
I have driven cars with act, competition, and exedy set ups and and so far im most pleased with the feel of the exedy on a low whp supercharged car. Any input or advice would be appreciated.

This is what I will be using. I too have a daily. Stock engagement is great but there will always be a compromise for grip and drive ability.
A quick question:
Did you buy the JR kit for a B18C or B16? Did you piece it together? Was there anything different considering the LS/Vtec configuration? I too have an LS/Vtec and have been considering a JR kit. I just wasn't sure what kit to look at considering I have a LS bottom with a B16 head. Input is appreciated. I'm not trying to jack your thread. You can just PM me if you like.
Sol looks clean too!
Thanks!
