Easy clutch to drive. Mine doesnt chatter at all if I throw some revs at.

If you guys think that clutch is hard to drive you don't want to even try the twin disk. It's like an on/off switch.
With a little more RPM and a steady left foot, you can make any of them feel smooth.

I support that Kevin! Twin disc is a whole new animal. Much more delicate for that sweet spot.

My car makes 452 ft tq and I am shocked that this FX500 is holding. Regardless what they are rated at. So far in the short time I have had it the thing is holding. If not then my next move is a twin disk. The cool thing about twin disks these days is that have come a long way and have improved very well for street car applications.

I'm still getting used to my fx500 (4 puck). Like others said it gets better after warm up. I had chatter with my last clutch setup but I believe it was due to flywheel needing to be serviced.

My ACT held up to the low 400 Ft Tq range then that was it. The spec mini twin holds everything I through at it. It's not noisy and the pedal feels better than my ACT did. It just took some getting use to. Shit use to embarrass me all the time. Felt like I just started driving stick shift.

How are these clutches on the clutch cables? will they stretch them out? Also, what about when your pre-load? are they harsh on the transmissions?

Our clutch cables break if you look at them wrong; always keep a spare with you unless you go hyrdaulic

I've never had a cable snap in 9 years of sr20s
