Best clutch for 750+ RWHP

A few other companies have recently experimented with carbon/carbon multidisk clutches, but tilton probably has the most experience--along with the highest price. How much are you willing to spend for a streetable clutch that will hold 1000+hp? Once you go 600-700+HP, you start running into ludicrous amounts of money to maintain any semblance of streetability. This is why I've capped my project off at the 500-600rwhp range.

I'm seeing this, and I am willing to pay for something that I will use... my car is a daily driver with occasional track use. I believe that the $4500 clutch set up is a little ridiculous.... I'd love it, but I'm hoping that there is a reasonable alternative that I can live with

We run the $1800 SPEC in our 800hp car.Drives better than a stage 5 with no noise.Peddle pressure is stock feel.
Our blown 427ci Vette runs there $2400 clutch.Drives very good,he drives it every single day.Probly 800 miles a week.

I make 450 to the wheels right now and have a Ram twin disk clutch. It drives smoother than stock and is holding up to the task at the track as well. Ram claims it will hold up to 900 hp.

I have the Textralia exo-skel as well. I have come down with motor issues now and haven't had the chance to try it out. I got mine from sponsor byunspeed for $1249. It looks really nice. There is a handful of people in the country that has one but no one on here that I know of that has really had the oportunity to test it out yet. It has just been available for the past few months. I have also heard good things about the Spec dual disc from another source that has one as well.

Exedy dual or triple disc clutches will hold that kind of power and last.
