Default Turbo camaro needs a clutch!

Im tired of having my car down, and im FINALLY getting a check back from Fidanza... what a fiasco. I absolutely LOVED their 7.6 twin disk (supposed to be good to 900hp) until one day it started slipping on me... with less 10 passes and 1k miles on it.

What are you turbo guys running? Im 600hp/700trq rwhp. I do a lot more street 'driving' and autocrossing versus drag.

Currently looking at mcleod & monster. Any input?

Ive also had some problems with aluminum flywheels slipping... you guys run steel?

For your application I would recommend an 11" Monster race clutch with the ceramic disc.

I am in the process of a M6 swap. My friend has an ACT Twin disk in his car and after driving it, that's what I'm goin with. It is lighter than alot of the twins currently on the market and they have like 9 different models from 850 to 1400 hp.
For me the two biggest selling points were it's weight and driveabilty. The pedal effort is near stock, and as a plus it is relatively cheap.
