Default Clutch recommendations please

Can anyone recommend a clutch that will handle 400+ rwhp?

With OEM flywheel : Clutchmaster Stage 3.
If you want a lightened Fywheel as well, then the JWT combo is a good value.

stock will...

but you will get best performance with a ligher set up...

JWT flywheel and NISMO Clutch is the lighter of the OE Drivable setups...

JWT Flywheel and JWT Clutch is a little bit harder to launch...

The steps up from there are more extreeme...

The 2 disc cerametallic rally clutch will handle 690 to the wheels... and the complete assembly weights 16lbs...

Hmmm. Has anyone done the Tilton with FI? I am sure it would be interesting. I do not like rattling, so I kinda wanted to stay with the stock flywheel.

Have to disagree here.....stock won't even handle the 325rwhp from my HKS supercharger. Slips on higher rpm hard shifts.

Ditto, the torque I am putting out will destroy my stock clutch pretty soon.
