Questions about clutches and power

[rob1621]

ok so i am getting a new clutch soon, and my car is pretty stock except for the intake and bov but my question is if i get a clutch thats rated for more power and dont have that power at the time will it f--k things up? like i plan on having around 300whp this or next summer and i need a new clutch now so should i just get the one thats rated for that power?

Hey. Don't worry. As long as you get a streetable clutch you'll be fine. Here are some good choices for you -

Fidanza 2.1 Performance Clutch Kit

EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts - ACT Heavy-Duty "2100" Street Clutch Kit : Mitsubishi Eclipse Turbo 90-99 *Black Friday Sale*

Most people go with ACT clutches, but I really recommend looking into Fidanza. Both of those clutches will be good for 300HP.

Are you doing to be DD this car, or is this going to be the weekend car that you beat the s*** out of? You should be fine with a ACT 2100 if you plan on just driving as a DD. But if you plan on beating the s*** out of it and launching it alot I would go with the ACT 2600.

My power goals are very similar but i was going to go with a center force dual friction. I was 300 - 350

If you need stronger then a 2100, which you probably won't if you're not going to go that far, the Fidanza 3.2 is equivalent to the 2600. I can supply a link if needed.

Do the ACT 2100. It holds great and it's easy on the leg muscle.

Ya i got a act 2600 and street disc new for 50 bucks so i couldn't pass it up but ya my left leg is getting huge. I can dunk again because of my clutch pedal
TG that my left foot is my planting foot.

2100 would be plenty
