so like the topic says, reason for posting here is because the cars are used for drag racing.

so we're finishing up some all motor k builds to compete in street stock/pro am all motor/street power classes, hoping to make somewhere along the 300whp 200 ft lbs mark. the difference in price between the 2 clutches is about 300 dollars, and was wondering what set ups or who have used them here and what your experiences were? is the hyper single enough? i know with the power level we are at a twin disk is not a necessity, but just wanted some feedback from people who have used one or both, on fi or na cars. is the jump worth it, or put the money elsewhere? or just some feedback. thanks!

 

I would have to say go with the comp twin, i have had some issues with the exedy hype single. I have used alot of comp twins and they have all done the job.

competition clutches

 

ive never messed with the exedy hyper singles but i have used a exedy twin for 3 years now and have nothing but good things to say about it

 

so your 3 years you claim actually equals about a month of actual use right? all other times its down. bret, you are now officially Terry2

 

haha well i got 14,000miles of street driving before rebuilding it

 

do it once and be done with it. exedy twin is the way to go.


i used the hyper single a few years back.....its a good clutch but i think its worth while to spend a little more and get the twin

is that terry#2 or terry squared? because i cant handle that much terry.
fwiw, i beat the snot out of my exedy twin last year bad and it held up. i am putting it back in this year also.

been starting to use cc, and havent seen any bad with them either.

 

the exedy twin is about the same cost as the carbonetics... and thats about 200 over the price of the competition, anyone ever ran the competition clutch twin disk? so the twin disk is the way to go then.. now which one?

 

exedy.

feel free to shoot me a PM and i'll be glad to share my experiences with any clutch your are considering. i have never used a carbonetics though.

 

Exedy twin! Hands down the best twin disc around. I have put a couple hyper singles on some K series but the disc is very thin and wears out quickly on high hp daily drivers. We are testing the Exedy twin for the k series right now and it is simply amazing. They might be adding the technology from the K series twins to the B series stuff, that will be awesome.

What's the difference in technology K series have that the B series don't? just wondering.

There are a bunch of new features in the "next" Bseries... But all of these new features already exist in the Kseries.... Ceter boss hub design, larger diameter discs etc.. Its really a cool piece.

Lastly, one thing to consider about the Exedy, is that it is a direct fit bolt on, NO CUTTING, GRINDING OR MODIFICATION required. Which is more than I can say for some of the others...

::: Sales pitch off:::

 

ok so the exedy twin is the way to go, but now my parts supplier is saying that the k sereis twin disk is under development.. are you guys doing testing for exedy on that clutch or are they available already? weird ****...

 

just spoke with exedy and the twin disk is not available with no estimated time arrival.. you guys testing it for them? lucky *****...

 

i use tilton and i love it

 

I think I may be one of the ONLY people here who have ran an exedy hyper single and currently running the CC twin. The exedy hyper single is a nice clutch, but it did not hold up to my sub 400whp turbo bseries, but its not really rated for that much power either. The CC twin is a great clutch hands down. i personally think comparing a hyper single to a CC twin is apples n oranges. Now the exedy twin and CC twin would be more comparable. I do find it hard to justify paying so much for a single disc clutch (hyper single).

All in all, you can't really go wrong with the CC twin, race proven and affordable.

Sorry Yoni. Anyway, the clutch feels SO good compared to some other twins I have used on the K's. to Exedy engineers.

The RPS twin carbon I used in my crx had vented floaters and discs and seemed worked awesome for me! Keeping a clutch cool always is a good thing!

 

yeah, thanks a lot! big mouth! just kidding...

No biggie.. Its good to hear positive experiences about the new design.. its a very cool setup, and I know that it will be a great option for people...

BTW: the last I heard, we are expecting the K's soon... but dont hold me to that... Im trying to find an real ETA at the moment.

I have never uses Exedy products but I have used ACT single disk and CC twin disk. I can vouch for CC twin disc. There customer service is none the less.
