So ive been buying parts all winter long. i had put a stock clutch back in my car. Since the winter ive picked up a full 3inch exhaust, PR o2 housing with external wastegate, 16g turbo, FP exh manifold, DSMlink v3, and Speed density, and a mild cam of 272/256 * web camshafts*

I dont know to much of the difference between the puck and street discs, other than pucks are more for racing, launching and such. So ive been browsing between some of the cheaper priced clutches, im not looking to go crazy as right now in my car is the 7bolt motor.

Looking to run around 16-20 psi, Curious about the Fidanza Clutches ? seeing them on extremepsi for about 399 or so. Any other opinions on decent clutches that should hold up? im not daily driving the car, only weekends, if a cruise is around maybe to the track once a month if that.
 
I would go with competition clutch stage 4 :), for a couple reasons. I daily drove my car with one and liked it a lot. The peddle was stiff obviously but it was also cheaper then there stage 3 clutches. I believe it was a full face disc also MAPerformance sells them and has quick shipping. But again exedy makes a great clutch stage one that they say holds up to 350 wheel horse power as well as torque. One side note to remember is that clutch companies offer a warranty on there items must you must either purchase a new flywheel at time of install or have your current one turned and stepped correctly.

Here is a link to them. Competition Clutch :: Clutch Kits :: Clutch Components :: Drivetrain Components :: DSM :: Mitsubishi :: Modern Automotive Performance

I would not go with a Spec clutch as mentioned above as my previous experience is we have had two of them explode in the car. The springs broke out of the disc after a period of time 1 to 2 years daily driving.

My spec clutch disc cracked inward between the pucks to the hub. I'm in the market for a good clutch as well. I liked the act2900. Might look at going back with that.
 
Well the reason in using an external is because that's the setup I want to run in the future. I want to start smaller with the 16g try and learn a lot more about tuning with DSMlinkv3 before I just get the larger to turbo. As for the fuel issue, that's another reason to run lower boost. But I am picking up some 750cc injectors fuel pump and a adjustable fpr. Was just wanting to get it all worked out before I go big.

Yeah extremepsi is a nice vendor, there located close by so I order something and it's always there next day.

So I'll take a look at some exedy clutches, what about fidanza? Any other sites besides extremepsi with some good deals on clutches?
