I drive one every day. Took a day or two get used to the engagement but no problems here now. Does squeal a bit though. If you don't NEED a stage 5 clutch then don't get one. I'm at 725rwhp shooting for 850-900later so it's a must. IF you do alot of bumper to bumper traffic I wouldn't recommend it either. But it works well for how I use it. I'll try another stg5 or the new spec dual disk setup.

I have a barely used SPEC 5i disc I will let go for $75 shipped if you want to try it out. It has no measurable wear over a new SPEC stage 5. Has maybe 50 miles on it. The "i" means its sprung and it was the most streetable clutch i have used yet besides stock. I went 1.38 sixty foot with it.
