I've just been researching all this ....Try here www.specclutch.com
www.speccluches.com

Also try a search on spec or clutches

E-mail the sponsors. They all responded to my inquiries. And call Spec....they were very helpful, too!

Good Luck!

The ceramic is going to hold up a bit more than the carbon fiber, but its going to wear faster! Im not sure on the rating of the ceramic, but the carbon fiber holds up to 600 or 650 rwhp! I would assume that the carbon fiber has less chattering since it has less holding capacity than the ceramic, but I could be wrong. Im running the carbon fiber in my set up and it doesnt chatter that much, only when releasing the clutch pedal really slowly and not giving it any gas. On normal driving, I dont ever experience it! If Im right, more holding capacity, more wear, and more chattering! Hope that helps!
