I needed to replace my slipping stock clutch so I purchased an Advanced Clutch Technology heavy duty clutch kit and even though it's on my daily driver, engagment is not too harsh for traffic and I can feel some extra torque but not enough to justify buying the ACT kit unless your current clutch is going out...but then again I do have an I4 with minor upgrades so any torque gains I believe would be minimal. Unfortunately I couldn't find a lightened flywheel for a reasonable price...I've heard from guys on this forum that doing both is a good idea :wink:

I have a Clutchmasters Stage 2, and I'm very happy with it. It's got significantly more holding force than the stock clutch. I'm up to over 270 fwhp with my current mods, and I don't have any problem getting it to the ground. It also engages just as smoothly as the stock clutch.

I have a SPEC Stage 2 clutch along with the Fidanze Lightened Flywheel. Engaging clutch seems much like stock and it isn't harsh at all. Although you do have to rev up flywheel little higher so you don't stall.
