I know this isn't a priority for you, but like the aformentioned chart states..........the OS is not good for Drag. I have killed mine (claimed to hold 400-450tq) with only 265wtq and 3-4k miles. On top of that I made about 100 passes with 5500rpm launches on drag radials. So, if you plan to drag it at all, i'd look at the tilton. I was under the impresson that the tilton was around 4500-4800 for the triple carbon.

I just got a quote from a forum vendor for an upgrade to the Carbonetics triple (rebuilding in my twin disc housing) for $875. I still need to see how XKR's new clutch drives on the street and have Frank or Dave confirm that my clutch is slipping when on the meth.

Thawk.....4-4800 is what I was told...

03three.....no drag racing here....

Cass.....Did some research and tons of phone calls here is what I was told....

"we can't say this car made 900whp with his setup.... So that means I should. We cannot compare a setup that builds boost at 4k with one that builds at 6k. Take your slipping clutch and add it to the car that builds at 6k and it has a less chance of slipping. All TQ is not the same. The one that builds the TQ the fastest needs the most grab."

So this now explains why I am the only one having issues with this clutch like I said before ... I made 700whp on DD with 850bb without any slip.... But the boost did not hit like this
