I have a stage 4 in and it holds great. I aint makin crazy numbers but close to 550 at teh wheels and it holds like a champ through abuse like you wouldnt believe. It holds in third so well that the tires give up and spin and i have 315/35 tires. Definatly happy with star's clutches. A twin disk is bad ***. You should be able to handle alot of power with something like that. GL man

Textralia, otherwise known as the aussie, love it. Smooth as stock with the grip of a gorilla!

I'm on a spec 5 and really like it. Squeals a little when starting out depending on how you release it, but it's smooth and very slippable. They sent it too me after I welded two of the stage 4f's to the flywheel. Stay away from the 4f unless they have fixed it.

My clutch setup might be the 4 pressure plate and the 5 disk. I hear most guys complain about the harshness of the stage 5, but mine is very smooth.

I had a spec 3 with billet steel F/W and took it out after 4000 miles of hard driving and it was about done. Replaced it with the textralia, 150 miles so far and no track time yet. And I'm only pushing 390 HP. Don't buy a spec unless it's a 5.

Spec V here also, mine also is very smooth but squeaks sometimes, I'm really like the manners of this clutch but after what happened to Vince I'm a bit scared still.

Spec 5. More streetable than the twin.

Had the McLeod twin........its not really a stop and go clutch.....more of a stop and launch clutch.
