Default My tex twin disk experience

I just replaced my centerforce with a textralia twin disk and am loving it so far. No chatter, no noise while clutch is depressed that i can hear over the exaust. After installation i drove it 50 miles to the dyno, got my car tuned and drove it another 50 home. To me the pedal feels maybe 10-15% heavier than my zo6 and centerforce dual friction did. Engagement is smooth and grips like no other. I need to work on my technique a little to leave smoothly from a stop, right now i usually chirp the tires but thats more of a reflection on me i think than the clutch. So all in all I love it thus far with about 120 miles on it.

I've had mine for a good 2000+ miles. It's grip is almost excessive. lol

I drove it in bumper to bumper traffic yesterday going uphill and it still did not turn me off. Awesome clutch with great street manners.

im not sure there is such a thing as excessive grip when you start adding major power.

Mine is about 50% heavier than stock. It has some chatter but it doesn't bother me. I drag race the car. My only concern is getting it to slip a bit on the launch. I want to see some low 1.4x's but it's light and tends to grab hard which causes bog.
I took 1pass so far. 1.54. Hope it can be slipped. It shifts nice.
