I never really got a clear answer to this before. I bought a CM stage 4 6 puck sprung. it has a rating of 170% over stock. lets say a gsr makes 130 tq so does that mean

130 * 1.7 = 221
or
221 + 130 (stock) = 351

 

130 x 1.7 yes.
or
130 x 170% works also on a calculator with a %key.

 

that's just great , the guys at cm told me the other way around 221+130. my car makes 335 tq so that means it prob won't hold.

 

hard launches and slicks wear cluthes the most from what ive seen. Just dont abuse the Sh*T out of it.

 

if it holds 170% over stock it would be 130 x 2.7 if it holds 170% of the stock capacity that means 70% more.

 

Its over stock so i'm safe...whew

Its amazing how soft the clutch pedal is. Its almost like stock.

me. (sorry working on too many brake jobs today and inhaled too much brake kleen) it is the 131 + 170% of 131.

 

yeah and it seems more rational that a stage 4 clutch would be able to hold more than 220 ft/lbs anyways. also even though a stock gsr makes 130 ft/lbs doesnt mean that thats all the clutch can handle. not sure on actual ratings but who knows

130 x 170% is incorrect. The correct method is 130 + 170%

 

so what clutch would any of you reccomned making 300+ lbs/ft trq?

i think he was explaining how to calculate 170% of 130. not saying that was the torque rating.
