Exedy blows. After recently seeing a CM clutch with Exedys name on it...not down with that either.

Ive always recommended ACT HDSS, and continue to do so

I would go with exedy race, its a little looser than act. but getting turbo i think act can do it (it will wear out the same)

Ive always ran act with no probs/very streetable

For the average turbo setup the act hd/ss will be fine, if your looking to make alot of power youll need to go with the xt/ss, but you need to figure out what kind power you are going to make

Stage 3 CM with a light Fly is what I'm using and love it. Great daily driver and holds up when you need it to.

got exedy now. love it.

how could they put there name on a cm when cm doesnt make there own? exedy is a brand new clutch. not a remaufactured one.

What a helpful reply. Care to give any reasons why?

FWIW, Exedy makes the OEM clutch.

I'm running the Exedy organic racing clutch on my Turbo LS with no problems. Of course, I do SCCA racing rather than drag, so I don't ever launch it. And I probably would have chosen an even stronger clutch if I had known I'd be going turbo when I replaced the clutch. But I have no reason to think that there would be anything wrong with a higher Exedy model.

true 6 puck is the way to go on turbo, however I'd recommend the XT pressure plate over the HD one incase you want to go b00st crazy.

not mention harsh engagement and stiff pedal &gt; *
