Default Clutch suggestions

Currently running a spec 3+ in my 99 TA... its practically new but slipping currently at my low boost/pump tune which makes 800whp... this is the only thing keeping my from turning up things a little ... i would like suggestions on a good multi-disc clutch to go with that will support a **** ton of power. Ive been looking at the Mcloed Twin but it says it will handle 1k whp, which is probably around the power level my car will be sitting at on higher boost and I don't want to be pushing the limits of whatever clutch I decide to go with... any opinions are appreciated..

and yes, im considering going auto just dont know when that will be...

I run the McLeod RST and love it! I think the RXT would be perfect for you

Look into our Twins and Triples

Twins-
Level 2-1000 rwhp/tq
Level 3- 1500 rwhp/tq

Triples-
Level 1 Triple- 1000hp
Level 2 Triple- 1500hp

Both offer excellent capacity, great driveability. All of our twins/triples use a billet cover, everything is made in the U.S. If you have any questions give us a call at 817-750-2000

Id like to see you get a clutch that will hold and turn it up.... Way up

I would go with a Monster. I have had a couple in my cars and they held up great. Beat the hell out of them and i had over 20k on one clutch and drove like it was new!

Hey Speed I would be interested in knowing more about your current setup and situation. Specifically, what your torque output is. What flywheel is being used? Where engagement occurs relative to pedal travel. Etc... Give me a call at your convenience.
