Dropped the car off and the shop looks wayyyy better/ different! I met Methodrn and JTran the man.

Can't wait to see the clutch difference and give a review.

Had to click the bottom play button, not the top one. Top one gave me that error for some reason. OK watched them. Now I can sleep good tonight.

My review of the DXD B Stage 5 Ceramic, (prior to break in) so far I havent been able to really get on it ..... I have been through all the gears though.. Huge difference in the clutch grab and holding power.. I get from first to 6th so fast now I unconsciously double clutch 6th gear and laugh at myself because I want MORE.. This clutch is now allowing me to see my full potential in boost and see 18psi on my defi where the nismo would only hold to 15psi.. (Nismo is not meant for TT/Built car IMO)

The stiffness is equal to the NISMO on the left foot..... Nothing much IMO.. Getting in 1st could be a little tricky trying to slip perfectly but it isnt really challenging.... Now for the noise, it is not for the weak or the OEM minded person who wants a super quiet cab.. Louder than NISMO and has the cement mixer noise at low rpm when taking off from that low rpm (could be avoided by a skilled driver)

I love how it falls into gears so easy and crisp now.. It is seriously like day and night.. Its so smooth and shifts perfectly...

I understand the noise is due to MY choice of NON SPRUNG clutch, I didnt want a spring ( I love the noise, it sounds MEAN! ), I do have a lightweight NISMO flywheel I forgot to mention...

I must say this thing is worth every penny, bang for buck the best deal on this website!! DXD B Ceramic 6 puck FTMFW!!!
