I can't imagine this being cost effective. . . How much power do you make? Stock clutch not holding?

I have used Stock, Exedy and ACT. All I can say is DO NOT BUY EXEDY and ACT is still doing well after 10,000 miles.

We are trying to tel you there are just as good or better clutches for a lot less money. Have you looked at other options or do you plan to show off your mugen clutch?

The Mugen clutch was designed for racing use only, a friend recently pulled the clutch out at ~12,000 miles and it was done, although it did have ~4 track days on it. If you want a racing clutch be prepared to pull the transmission and replace the clutch at regualar intervals.

I plan on ACT whenever my stock clutch screws the pooch.

Yeah...the amount of friction material left was equal to ~3 pieces of paper tightly packed, he was VERY lucky that it was pulled before it killed anything.
