I've heard the JWT combo is good for around 450 rwtq... I've got the combo on my car (granted I'm not boosted) and I love it.

Let us know. I'm considering the JWT combo, but I might want something that can hold more power if I build the motor. I was considering the act 6-puck and jwt flywheel, but I'd like to maintain a close-to-stock clutch feel if I can.

I'm not sure where these "max holding" power numbers are coming from. I talked to Jim WOlf and according to him the JWT setup should hold as much as 550 RWHP and I believe marlucci's is holding 600+

ACT 6 puck and JWT flywheel:
This is the set up I have and at first it took some getting used to... finding the right rpm range to get a smooth lauch in first but the rest of the gears are fine. The pedal is diffently stiffer than stock. Car feels great under WOT and shifting through the gears... awsome enguagement. I am happy with this but was originally going with the RPS set up(back ordered @ the time)... heard its just as good just not as aggressive, the clutch is sprung where as my ACT is not.
