you'll have to find the tq handling of the clutch to be sure. i didn't see it listed on the site.

you can't go wrong with act. the hdss would prolly suffice but you might want th xtss. act also makes a 12lb and an 8lb fly. i kinda feel alittle more comfortable with the 12lb(which is why i bought it) and also this is a daily driver so having the revs drop all day would kinda be annoying.

i also hear ALOT ALOT of good reviews on clutch specialties clutchs. theres a seller on www.turbod16.com be sure to check them out

i think by revs dropping he means on a really light setup it has less rotational mass and weight, therefore inbetween shifts it doesnt have as much momentum so the revs will drop lower when you put in into the next gear

When u shift at near redline the next gear is gonna turn at a specific speed because of the way its engineered(its size).
Whether ur flywheel is 2lbs or 22lbs ur next shift will always be at the same rpm.
Mind u if u shift slow the engine will reduce its rpm faster but once u put it in the next gear itll climb back up...bla bla bla

Let me try to clear this up KIDS......

I tihnk he was just saying that since its a lighter flywheel, the revs fall faster when you remove your foot off the gas to shift, therfore when the clutch engages, it willl start engaging from a slightly lower RPM. Now when it DOES fully engage, of course it will still be at the same RPM for the MPH as wit the old flywheel.... U are both saying the same thing. Now Ravage mount Ikailbum like the ambiguously gay duo and take this some place else ehh? ;)

yes yes exactly. i was saying if u take your foot off the pedal the revs will drop faster with a light fly. the opposite is true aswell. they will climb faster because of its lighter weight.

it sounds like we are all in agreeance(sp) here. =)
