I can't speak from experience about this clutches behind a V8 or a lot of torque... but I have a SPEC Stage III clutch in my daily driver (Saturn) with over 15,000 miles on it and the clutch is great. It performs well but is still very managable to get in and drive through the city. It came highly recommended by some sport compact friends of mine.

Hopefully the version for real motors and trannys is just as good =)

i put about 70 miles on the clutch last night.....and i have to say its pretty streetable for the type of clutch it is.

its very mild mannered, but when the car is cold it chatters a bit in reverse......


starting from a stop is a bit touchy.....it doesnt chatter, but it wants to GO....just hook and take off....its difficult to slide, but it can be done...the modulation is just finer than with a regular clutch...will probably just take some getting used to

as far as performance goes, i cant really say yet as i have been taking it pretty easy breaking the clutch in.....no hard throttle clutch drops or anything yet

all in all it seems to be working pretty well
