Default Tilton carbon twin disc impressions!

I love it! Drives nearly like a stock clutch, there is abslotutely no scattering like with an sinter-metall clutch. The only thing I have to get use to, when I get of the clutch pedal about 1cm the clutch is engaged!

IMO one of the best investments I have done so far to my car. I like the sound when I start up the car, like on Ducati Motorcycles with dry clutch. ....sounds like metall to metall The car revs like a champ with that light flywheel/Clutch combo, first time I thought it will suck a bit on street, but it is so great, I need 1200rpm idle ...but hey, it is a race car

Do you mean that when you let the clutch off the floor one cm it engages? I wouldn't like that at all.

I run the twin disk cerametallic and it engages the exact same way. Very weird driving it and then jumping into the daily driver. Makes an interesting first shift or two untill I get used to the soft one again.

Have u tried adjusting the clutch pedal to move the engagement point higher??
Its pretty simple. My XTSS was just like that and i didint like it. So i adjusted the clutch pedal and its in the middle where i want it.
