Clutches are usually rated by torque. The ACT is under-rated but I dont know if it should be recommended for 500WHP+ people either. I know a bunch of guys that burned up their ACT in less then a year, not sure if its driver mod, abuse, defect, or too much power for it.
Keeping that in mind we've been moving a lot more Spec clutches. Shiv runs the spec stage 2+ in his 650WHP car. I would look into something like that if you plan on going upgraded turbo's. Or the ACT or Fx300 will suffice. |

I am using ACT Street at the moment (price is only around $440 !)and I am very happy with how it holds with Nitto 555R drag radials on my FBO + meth car. I did at least 20 drag launches until now, plus several thousands kilometers of daily driving. For stock turbos I would highly recommend this clutch (along with a re-surfaced or new flywheel !). It drives 100% like stock (except the slightly stiffer pedal), no chatter, no shuddering, just perfect.

depends on how you drive the car and if you do any racing and what kind...
We have had the best luck with the ACT or the CM-FX300 Let me now if you need any other help! |
