Which clutch for 400hp goal ?

[Dsmj89]

Just like the title states. The car will be daily driven and on weekends it will see action.
I had my thoughts on a act 2100 with sprung 6 puck, not sure if it'll hold up ?
Any suggestions/advice ?

IMO stage 3 or stage 4 zoom

 

[Dsmj89]

I want to stick to act..

act 2900 with a street disk

Any clutch would work. 400 whp in a fwd just spins the tires. If you can hook up, the 2100 and puck would work, and not ram your crank into the thrust bearing like a 2600.

 

[Dsmj89]

Thanks donnie, no worries i have it planned out. So a 2100 would hold that power goal with no problems ? And you probably forgot to put in the number of pucks, 4 or 6 ?
I know a 4 clamps more but not sure if that's what i should get. Thanks again for your help.

If you're dead set on a puck style disc then I would go with the 6 puck as it should be a little friendlier to drive with less chatter etc. upon engagement.

I HATE how the 2600 sounds under engine braking. Its sounds like a terrible terrible metal on metal sound.

When I first heard it I thought something was wrong.

My 1g AWD made 420 at the wheels with a 2100 and a street disk. FWD shouldn't be a problem. 2100 has very good street manors too

It does? Maybe there is something wrong. Mine doesn't sound like that when engine braking.

I also run a 2600 now with a fidanza flywheel and have no noises at all did you resurface the flywheel before the new clutch?

 

[Dsmj89]

So should a 2600 be better suited for my goal ?

 

[domthebomb11208]

i recommend a 2600 and a good resurfaced flywheel. they are good clutches.

 

[Dsmj89]

Thanks dom, sounds good. I'll be getting a fidanza flywheel as well when i get the clutch.

2900 with a street disk sounds good, 2600 could also do the job. as long as your not launching all the time.. Gl

 

[eDeclpse92]

if its daily driven, i wouldn't use a puck. id use a street disc. I have an act 2600 in my talon. that is what i would suggest. look at the specs on the different clutches. the act 2600 will be plenty for 400 horsepower.

ACT 2100 and SBC Kevlar disc, nothing more streetable than that!
ACT 2600 is too much for your trust bearings.

Exactly what I was gonna suggest, we think way too much a like hahaha

2600 with a SBC kevlar and fidanza flywheel did twicks69 really well for a long time, He put down more power than a lot of people ever do. While using that setup.

I talked to Tim from TMZ performance who sells the SB Kevlar disc, he said he knows a few people making almost 600whp on a 2100PP and the SB Kevlar disc, def no reason to spend more on the 2600PP when it is not needed. Especially if the car is gonna be a street/strip car. If you want the best advice call Tim from TMZ, he'll hook you up. Here is his number 414.839.8250

i have read good things about the stage 4 clutch that you get off ebay!!!!

Now that was exactly what i was gonna say, i don't have his number though.

This is what i have: TZ/FE-Series Full-Face Kevlar/Feramic Sprung Clutch Disk.

A buddy of mine has a 97 talon with a 2100 and a 6 puck and it drives nice, daily driven too, i know a street disc would be more streetable but i wouldn't mind the 6, yeah it takes a little to get accustomed to during take off from a stop light with some vibration but i've managed to practice and overcome it.

A few years ago, I put down 400 WHP and 350 ft/lbs torque on a 3 year old ACT 2100 and street disk. It was holding up perfectly for me. I now prefer pucked disks, but the 2100 PP should be plenty to net your goals. Or go with a 2600 PP and have room to grow.

A 2900 PP is complete overkill at that power level.

Thanks for that piece of info paul !
