i think bein a 2 piece could cause probs. i'm just weird like that. and like i said, i like the idea of bein resurfaceable. the jun should work with any oem clutch, too; right?

We're your friends. We don't want to see anyone make a regrettable decision.

Get JUN Flywheel and JWT clutch n pressure plate. That's what I'm going with. I don't trust that 8lb flywheel. I don't think it'll be boost friendly in the future. Besides, don't ceramic clutches act really funky for normal street use??

TILTON flywheel and clutch will handle more then 600RWTQ / HP...

cerametallic clutch disk's are very grabby... but with this new pressure plate, it is easier to controll.... if you are that worried.. spring for the carbon/carbon clutch... it will cost you less over time since you wont be needing to change the clutch out as much as with a semiorganic blended disk...

how long do the stock clutches normally last with mainly spirited driving, no real track days?
