I've installed 6 of them since they were released. No problems or failures.Cars range from 400hp to 850rwhp.Most drive in alot of traffic. Peddle will be the same or lighter than what you have now.

I finally got mine broke in. So far this thing rocks. I'm using the Tick master with it. Pedal effort is similar to my old Ram powergrip HD and stock master. Not bad at all.

I run the RST and its the best clutch i've had on any of my cars. Drives like stock, but handles the power. What else would you want?

I ran the RST behind a 800hp procharged SBC in a 68 Camaro. No hydraulic assist. I liked it but definitely didn't drive it daily. I anticipated it being a lot stiffer than it ended up being. I will run one again when I need the clamping force for that kind of power.
