IMO the best brand is ACT....about stages it really depends on the aplication and the power you are putting down

I was using a Centerforce Dual Friction clutch. I hated it. When I first got it, it grabbed quickly and strong. After a week or two it became spongy and not as reactive. I wouldn't suggest the Centerforce to anyone running near 200WHP. I was thinking of replacing it with an ACT clutch. They seem to be one of the best from what I have found so far.

i say look on act recomandations and go with the lowest level they have that can handle your power....that way it won't be too stiff for daily driving

I had a clutch masters stage 4, that went. And now I have a competition clutch stage 4, it's held up to the abuse of 500whp and is only rated at 380whp.

I have a SPEC Stage 3 six-puck clutch.

Pro's: Cheaper than the rest ($290 shipped); torque capacity higher than all competitors (300+ ft/lbs); 30% over stock pedal pressure (you have room to feather it out); holds like a MO-FO!

Con's: Rough until it gets broken in

You're retarded. I can buy almost 4 of the clutch I have now for the price of one. That's a stupid ass post.

If I went with ACT, I would suggest the ACT XTSS. It has a VERY firm pedal and grips like a mofo.

Normal clutches are solid. Puck style clutches have separated pieces, call pucks.
