Default clutch for 800rwhp/800rwtq

hey fellas, i know this question has been asked a bunch of times.... i read about the clutch article but there werent many people making the power im making so...... i need a clutch that will hold up to 800/800. my car is making tons of power and i need a clutch that will support the future mods. car makes almost 600hp to the flywheel and and i need something thats going to take that kind of abuse.

what do you M6 masters reccomend? i need facts from people actually making the kinda power im making and more. i dont need people with 400rwhp telling me that this clutch works because i make a lot more and it might not work for me

thanx peeps

A multi-plate setup. Either get the McLeod Twin Disk or the Textralia Exo-skel.

not bad my friends, my stock clutch is sticking a little and i just need to stop modding and get a clutch before it really blows out. i dont do ANY dig races, just highway rolls right now because i know my clutch cant take the abuse. maybe with a new twin disc i can do some dig races

Been running a Spec5 for 6000streetmiles on my setup. Squeaked at first but now drives quiet as the stocker and dead locks always. Highly recommend it.

Tex Exoskel... ive done lots of research on this and came to the conclusion that the tex exoskel is best for high hp applications. I plan on gettin an 800 hp TT setup and the exoskel can support that, plus they have great customer support.

ok, that's awesome. although I haven't heard anyone say anything about Mcleod's twin disc. so either spec 5 or tex exo.... good. now I just the $1200 for either and i'll be set

Spec 5 here. It squeels like a pig, but it can take some abuse. I've got about 4000 miles on it now, and some hard launches. I don't mind the noise, it's not a daily driver anyway. I probably will try the exoskel when its time to change.
