Is this for regular dail driving? A couple of individuals on the po.com forum are using the exedy organic racing clutch.... But if you are going to be doing the drag thing, ACT is good for yeah. Its your personal choice anyways.

That's a combo, clutch and flywheel for $200. It's if something you prefer. I'm still tryin to decide if I wanna go exedy or act. I'm not running too much power so I'm not sure if i'm gonna need a powerful clutch.

I have the exedy racing organic clutch. I love it for any type of driving. Grabs really nicely. It has help up for 2+ years with over 270whp. If I have to get another clutch I will move up the exedy cerametalic, but I love the organic. I have personally seen ACTs fail after a short time on friend's cars. May have just been installer error though.

My friend is also debating on which clutch to get. He has an EK hatch with an H22A and runs at the track on slicks. Would the Exedy Orgainc hold up well for this sort of driving or would he need to move up one more stage? He has basic bolt-ons'.

for your application, I would recommend the exedy cerametallic. It's a great clutch for a very reasonable price. Should be good for 300whp or soo. Act is also good, and they offer a flywheel combo unlike Exedy.

i called act about my 94 lude motor/tranny, i got the 6 puck but it was way to thick for daily driving. they told me with the xtreme pressure plate and street disc (spring hub) it should hold up to 390 wtq with street driveability. now thats nice.

But personally i've decided to go with a custom kevlar 6 puck a little thinner than the act. and the act xtreme pp and street light flywheel.
