Default Clutch time..... Bigger is better anyway...

I need suggestions

I currently have a Clutchmasters stage 3 which has been good for the last 2-2.5 years... but it's time to move on to something a little stronger.... venture into the heavier pedal pressures and quicker clamping force....

I don't know whether to get 6puck sprung, 4 puck sprung or another full face...

Suggestions?

I was thinking Clutchmasters stage 4??

ACT AI4-HDR6 or AI4-XTR6

those seem like good choices as well

I believe GSRgrrl and ThePunk have the answer to this one.

BTW, I have the CM stage 4 and I have no complaints.

LOL!! BEFORE BEFORE BEFORE!!! The stock clutch just can't hang with the extra power you'll get boosting. Now I know why everyone was telling me to install the clutch beforehand...or start racing someone from a roll. But hey, if you LIKE the smell of burnt clutch, stick to the stock one!

Jake,

Get the Action DD 3000lb pressure plate. I have it and I love it, and I loved it before I started selling them too. I wrote a review a while back. We have them on GB right now. $355 shipped with bearings, and tool.

Also, I think you should consider an unsprung dsk. They can take more punishment. And we all know how you punish your clutch outrunning those Vipers and 911s.

Let me know if you have any questions, or if there is anything I can do for you.
