ACT > Exedy. End of story.

You can use whatever flywheel you want, but the ACT is probably better.

Undoubedly! :yes:

You'll be happy with the XTSS. It's a little harsh at first, but it grabs like a mother and very low on the pedal. Nice clutch choice.

Prepare to have your teeth rattled out. I had that only because of necessity. Making 457 whp / ~320 wtq required that I get it because I was destroying the XTSS quickly.

The R6 is very very harsh as it is an unsprung 6-puck disc. I daily drove my car, but if you don't HAVE to get that clutch, you really shouldn't. It's a fairly hard clutch to drive on a daily driver. :happysad:

I have 250whp around 170ftlbs of torque Which clutch that act makes do you reccomend. I would like to get the extreme pressure plate though because I am running turbo and I am going to build the engine with an lsvtec fully built in about 9 months.

The XT pressure plate is a must. If you look at the ACT site (www.advancedclutch.com) they list the torque parameters for each kit. I suggest you look there and get what you think will work for you now, and after future power is made - cause you know you won't stop here.

Don't overdo it. I think the SS will work just fine for your setup.
