I just bought a JWT flywheel and JWT clutch. I think you will be happy with this setup.

I think that the JWT combo is awsome. I got a different clutch because I had a turbo on and there was rumor that the JWT clutch could only handle 400whp so I opted for a stronger clutch.

Do you have a 5AT now? Are you doing a full swap to 6MT? I do and was going to do a swap, was very very close(like next day going to put a deposit). I searched for days and days and was set on the JWT combo for streetability,durability,and quality(you can even buy the friction area of the flywheel if it wears out).Plus JWT is a great quality product that doesnt cost a huge amount(some combos are 2x as much) given that a full tranny swap is up there in $$$. And not to say anything bad about any other brands out there, JWT's customer service is second to none. Who are you going to have do the work? The reason Im not doing it anymore is my Dad just so happened to be trading up and he gave me an even trade for mine...family transfer So yea, Ill get off of my soapbox now. JWT gets my vote!

for 500-600whp I would go with the ATS carbon twin disc. Above 600whp go with the ATS carbon triple disc. JWT is not going to handle the power you are looking for.

In the $900 to $1000 range, I prefer the RPS 6 puck with flywheel. Its a couple hundred more than JWT, but rated 625ft/lbs, and is more aggressive than the JWT setup.
