I had bought a CM clutch for my Teg and it didn't even last me a year, I went with ACT and it's been 3 years and still going strong....

Did you beat the crap out of it? Follow break in period? I was kinda leaning toward the ACT before, but I got good price for the CM. So I can't argue with it.

Follow the proper break in periods of 500 miles city driving, meaning stop and go. Thats a long break in period, but is very benificial. (I know centerforce stg 2 is 500 city for sure)

my CM stage 1 sucks. feels like it slips before the wheels spin. followed break-in with a couple slip-ups(like getting on the highway). I feel like it is a piece of ****...can barely bark second with my b16 hatch(intake, lightweight flywheel, pulley)...oh well- I reccomend act
