I have SPEC Stage 3 clutch/lightweight flywheel.. Clutch has held up beautifully to a lot of abuse, and the lightweight flywheel feels great but the chatter does bug me. I find myself sitting at lights with my foot pressing the clutch to keep it quiet. If I was to do it again I'd most likely not go that route with my daily

How much does ur flywheel weigh? Spec seems to be a possible option in the stage 2 to 3+ range.

Throw out bearing....etc.

they do chatter on the e90 chassis alot. but to me its a small setback for major rewards

you WILL find yourself holding the clutch down in drivethrus, i had a 12lb in my old e90 and it was ridiculous, especially with the a/c on

From what I hear the stop doesn't. Yea my clutch is still good with fbo and meth but the time will come.

I would take out the clutch stop if you change your clutch.

How is the engagement point on the SPEC (especially compared to the ACT). The only thing keeping me from ACT is the floor engagement. Your opinion on SPEC are welcome.
