i'm going to turbo my 2000 itr in a month or so and was looking for clutch suggestions. i would like to keep as close to a stock feel as possible. i'll be boosting 7lbs daily and 10lbs when needed. i'm going with hondata, ngk plugs ,warlboro pump,and 550 injectors. the clutch was the undecided thing on the list. any suggestions.

ACT, or clutch master are i can get u CM stage 3 or 4 with CM flywheel for 600 or 310 each...

 

any other suggestions??????? nopi says that cm stage 3 will hold 80 shot of nos/small turbo. will this be enough for 7-10 lbs of boost????

 

I would go with act, i've had much better experience with them than clutchmasters.

 

How about Action clutches sold by Rocket and HondaSaver? Those seems to be having good praises, not like i have tried it yet.

 

i'm using ACT heavy duty clutch on my turbo R, it feels good to me~!

 

stock clutch. Im making 190+ft lbs and the stock clutch is holding up just fine.

98 ITR turbo

 

act extreme pressure plate with street disk, holding up 330whp currently

 

I have clutchnet stage 2 and we looked after 12000 miles on the disc and she is fine! Grabs very good. I am boosting 18psi daily.

I had a few sliping probelms, but this was at the beginning and such clutches needs an break in time.

 

ACT all the way, but only if you go Xtreme....Xtreme has one sick grip.

 

clutchnet stage 2

 

i would reccomend clutchnet stage 2, but I am still in the breaking in process. 62 miles so far =D woo hoo.

 

break in on the clutchnet 2 needs about 300-400 miles. But then, it will hold 400whp easiliy. Easy engage and not too bad for daily driving. I love it.

 

i have the ACT xtreme pressure plate and the organic street disc and its held up great , i have 2 seasons of almost every weekend racing on it and 2yrs worth daily beating , its taken many 7500rpm launches and been thru quite a few bottles, , , holds up great for me .

 

I'm no clutch expert, but from talking to several people and driving 2 of my buddies Civics with Clutchmasters Stage 3 and a Stage 4, I'm ordering the stage 4 later this week I'm putting down 282hp and 198 ft. Lbs TQ right now and hope to build the motor for more power in the next year or so. My stock clutch gets hot and starts slipping as is right now.
