I have sold MANY MANY of these to customers with daily drivers and I never get any complaints. Also a good friend of mine has had his for maybe 3 years now with the upgraded pressure plate on a 450whp LS/VTEC still going strong and has been in 3 different cars. Oustanding clutch

mike how would you know? you are using a exedy twin disc set-up on your civic. you are right its a diffrence from the twin disk. But you would have no personal experience.

yes they are streetable

I've been though 2 competition 4 pucks... if ur under 400-450whp they r pretty good.

my friend has on his ls/vtec for about 2 yrs daily driver still going good...

but twin disk is more fun to drive on the street

Your best bet is the Stage 5 with the upgraded pressure plate option for that much power. I would rather see you in a Twin Disc BUT the Stage 5 with upgraded pressure plate will work well still

I have one in my DD and I love it. I've had it in my car for 2 years and it's the best clutch I've ever owned.

of all the clutches ive driven, 6puck/kevlars/organic sprung and unsprung etc, my CC twin disc drives easier and nicer than ALL of them, NO CONTEST!

theres only 1 issue with it....the rattling while clutch in gets annoying at times

my 4 puck cc stage 5 held 620whp, it slipped with anymore power past that.

the twin will hold a lot more than 679.
