Default B18b turbo at 18psi what clutch?

I need to upgrade my clutch. I was told ACT and ACTION were good, but which ones for this setup? Thanks.

For a street warrior that would prefer to break the least amount of axles possible; go w/ either an ACT extreme/street strip or Action stage 2 Kevlar sprung. I prefer sprung clutches for a street car, as they are easier to slip and break less parts.

Check with RPS, very happy with their product and cust service, I tore up their
street/strip setup and they warranty'd it, I got to upgrade to a 4 puck and paid a slight difference.

i've got an RPS since last summer.. pedal feel is stifer than stock, but it has held up great for me since, I"m a satisfied RPS user... MAYBE not the best clutch out there, but CERTAINLY not one of the worst either...

in my book, i give it 2 thumbs up!!!

400 to 450 depending on your driving style. the torque is whats gonna get ya if your running like a 2.0 liter. will hold at least 300 ft/lbs. if you slip it/ride it alot, it won't last long thats for sure.

I don't boost 18psi...but RPS has held up for 2 years of booting and 1 year all motor. Still the same clutch. 3rd gear sync. finally going.

If I was to replace my clutch...it would be RPS.
