My clutch has been on 2 different cars and is still holding great. It held up to a blown 289 on slicks running 11.4s. Now it is behind my daily driven 347 that so far has gone deep in the 12s. However the pedal is kinda stiff. I kinda like it though. Once again we need to know what your mods are to make recommendations. -------------------- 91 Mustang GT ET: 11.92@115 66 Mustang ET: 11.43@119 01 Audi S4 ET: 10.8@131 05 Audi S4 ET: 11.9@116 08 Audi S5 ET: 11.9@118 Posts: 416 | From: Lathrop | Registered: Mar 2004  |  : RixSikCobra ¯ Member # 5058 posted                                 I just did the "whch clutch should I get?" poll thing and ended up with a dual Friction McCleod, love it. Grabs great and has good drivability, no clanging or anything. NYCE. Edit: but as eveyone mentioned and I found out first hand, it all depends on hp/tq...there's alot of choices out there.

BTW the stage 3 Spec is a nightmare to drive on the street its hella chattery.

Pedal is as light as a stock clutch, tons of grab. -------------------- 1965 Shelby Cobra 1993 Cobra 2012 F150 Raptor 2020 GT500 Posts: 6523 | From: Orlando FL/Redding CA | Registered: Mar 2002  |  : CDT ¯ Member # 5004 posted                                 Exedy Hyper single feels like stock and performs under anything you can throw at it.
