Default Tilton Twin disc kit Vs. New Exedy Twin disc kit

Well those are to 2 clutch kits I have been debating. The question, is it worth $1350 for this clutch, and if so which one should I spend the money on? Sure Tilton is porven for the honda, but Exedy has a huge name with other cars. Help!!!!!

That is sooo pretty.
Anything else I need to know about doing the install?
I hear there's hardly as much pedal motion needed as well.

Ed, I will be using a Tilton clutch master cylinder and hydralic throw out bearing. It eliminates the slave clyinder and allows for more play but at the same time will allow you to have instant engagement. So tap the clutch and its ready to go..

It elimates the fork too. Basically it is a hydrolic throw out bearing. the Bearing itself moves up and down to engage/disengage the clutch. As soon as I have pics I'll post them..

we just got setup with Tilton @ SEMA, they have some VERY nice clutches and the new hydraulic release bearing is so nice. It comes with the bearing, stainless lines and master cylinder.

If anyone wants one, send me an IM, I'll work out some good pricing for you.

Thanks,

Kyle

Tilton - One of the best parts we ever purchased for the car. We ran it all season with zero slippage.

Exedy Twin Disc Clutch is excellent. 650 horses to the wheels no problem and great 1.4 sixty foot marks all day long. Tilton is great but wait till the carbon Exedy twin disc comes out in a few months. for the money Exedy all the way......
