Default Clutch Going Out

Het guys, my Comp stage 4 clutch has just about had it. I have an 03 with a STS kit and am making 403hp/390tq. I also have the Comp flywheel. I'm looking the JWT as a replacement as it is my DD and I wany more driveability and not as heavy of a pedal. I have also looked at the ACT.

Will these work with my flywheel?

From what I have read either will handle the power, but I was hoping for some opinions from you guys. Any suggestions are welcome

Thanks

if you need a stock clutch disc in the meantime let me know.

Isnt the JWT just a stock clutch disc and a stronger pressure plate?

Really depends on what you do with your car, Drag, track, Daily driver.

If you want a bit lighter pedal and a street kit I would recommend the Southbend Stage 2 or 3 kit. Let me know if I can help you choose.

No drag or tracking. Some spirited driving here and there. I'm just looking for better driveability. Is this clutch very grabby and how well do you think it will do with my comp flywheel? Is the engagement point low or high? My Comp is too high for my taste. Thanks for the reply

Engagement point is a combination of pedal adjustment and how well the clutch is built. You can always change engagement point with pedal adjustment.

Stage 2 has a nice performance feel to it and drives very smooth. This kit can be modified to hold more power also.
Stage 2 will have a bit more clamp load than stock with a higher power holding disk material, If you want smoooooth and a lighter pedal feel this is for you.
I have a modified stage 2 in stock that is sorta in between our SS pressure plate and the stage 2 kit, This kit has higher holding power than the stage 2 but the same great pedal feel as the stage 2. This is done by modifying the pressure plate in a slightly different way. I run this kit in my TT with 500+ wheel and it is just killer for the daily driver that's beaten on
Feel free to contact me for details or questions, My info can be found by clicking the links below.
