800-1000RWHP Which Spec Twin Based on my research on here the Spec twin is the best streetable clutch for the 800-1000RWHP crowd. Unfortunately when I went to Specs site, there are 5 twin discs. Just looking for a little clarity on which one would be best in a DD.

what are you using the car for? The PT trim which a lot of people run with fantastic results is good to 1395lbs of tq....this would be the best all around for a street car with that kind fo power...if youre going to track it often...I would consider maybe a higher level...these clutches are rebuildable...I run the PT trim in my Z06 it holds great and drives good on the street

Well, I heard the McLeods with put hell on the input spline shaft at those power levels. Guess you would recommend the Tex Exo Skel? Those were the top 3 I could figure after hours of research. I do appreciate any input. Thanks!

I'd go Spec twin PT, RPS twin or tripple, or McLeod RXT twin...the tex twin isnt enough for that power
my engagement isnt that bad...its just a short engagement window but i can slip it from a stop or slip it from 4000 at the track on the launch...good clutch...takes the heat...keeps on going...bites real hard when you ask!

The PT-Trim is a great option but we do offer 4 different versions of the Super-Twin. Let me know what kind of torque you are making and I will be happy to provide a recommendation. I have provided a link to our webpage specific to this application so you can see the torque ratings and prices for each model. These kits include a steel flywheel but we also offer an aluminum option for those interested in reduced mass for $89 more. Take a look and let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!!
