Default Stockest feeling clutch that can withstand +700hp

I want a clutch that feels like stock that can support 700hp/700tq with no problem. I would like the clutch to not be as hard as a rock! Somewhere near the pressure of a stock clutch. I have heard that Trextralia is the stockest feeling clutch. What about McLeod, Centerforce or Spec?

My Textralia Exo-Skel is REALLY streetable and I would say requires about 5-10% more force to disengage it.

Hell, a 5 foot girl drove it last night and said it wasn't that bad.

Do yourself a favor and stay far away from anything Mcleod....

That being said, my buddy has the Textralia, and it feels stock to me. Awesome clutch

Textrelia gets my vote; I've just recently purchased an 01 M6 WS6 that I plan on Procharging in the near future. I've heard nothing but things about Textrelia and it will my clutch of choice once my car is finally procharged.

Same brand. One is single disc, the other is dual
The single is easier to slip, the exoskel bites harder and apperars to be lighter..

I'm still trying to find out if anyone has been able to cut some low 1.4x's with the exoskel?

my SPEC 4 feels identical...almost lighter than my stock clutch.

its touchy on engageement due to the solid disc...but not bad. i think alot of my problem is due to the light flywheel.

See, you gotta watch out for that ****. That's why these polls don't work. People just vote on whatever the current trend is with little to no personal experience. Internet message board regergitation.

I have a Textralia and it is by far the best performing street clutch I've ever driven. Feels like stock and handles the power extremely well. The customer service alone is reason to get this clutch.

Centerforce can't even hold 400 rwhp why is this on the poll?? Anyway i've driven a text and it feels awesome and I haven't heard any problems with them not holding power do it right the 1st time and get a text.

I wouldnt rule out the mcleod street twin. I have one and its an awsome clutch, holds like a sombitch and drives great. Pedal effort is a lil hard but not bad at all. I might be wrong but i also think mcleod is the only one on there who offers a complete rebuild for $300.
