Well I hate to say but SPEC. I have had two spec clutchs. The last clutch was a spec stg II with 5-7k with no problems, when I was at 370hp at the wheels. But just recently I went F/I and am at 507 at the wheels and the stg II started to slip at top end. So I just finished up a stg5 install. This clutch is great feels great no on-off pedal feel and the pedal feels like stock compared to my FireHawks clutch. Engine revs much quicker, feels like a different car, also have alum flywheel as well, on stg II and 5.
I can say this who ever installs your clutch make sure you use NEW hardware fw-pp and correct torque spec and keep things clean and oil free. And what ever you hear follow the correct brake in procedure.

Glad to help
With your mods I thing you would be happy with the stg 5, and when you head for the track you would be more than safe. IMO.
I was worried about the SPEC clutch as well before I installed mine with all the bad posts. I am no means a big time track driver but for driveablity I am happy now with my new spec stg5.
But to each his own.

so i ordered the TSP special on the ram powergrip...comaprable to the spec 3...440 shipped 2nd day air, and i also am getting upgraded hydrolics w/ the drill mod, and resurfaced flywheel. what do u guys think about this and how it will hold up to the power im gonna throw at it.
btw: TSP was great when i talked to them on the phone...all the advice they gave me lead me to a decision i am very happy with. its gonna be installed on thursday 6/9/05 and hopefully i made the right decision.

well the clutch is in and has about 300 miles on it already and all i can say so far is that damn thing grabs...makes the car seem like a different beast. so far i am really happy with it and hopefully i will continue to have good luck with it. little if no chatter and once i learn how to drive the damn car again. the only problem i see is that now i have to worry about my rearend more
