Question ACT clutch sources

I'm looking to replace my OEM 'Exedy' clutch kit with one that will hold up under spirited driving conditions!
My car will soon have a header/exhaust system and a cold air box, otherwise stock.

I like the specs of the ACT units and want to stick with the total street set up, either the ZX2-HDSS (+34%) or the ZX2-XTSS (+75%)

Obviously since I'm in Canada I need someone who will ship north of the border.

Thanks!

WOW!!!!

Are these things ever expensive! USD from $290-350, landing this in Canada makes them more expensive then heading on down to Lordco!

In CDN$ i'll be in for $500 Is it really worth it?

Question Need to choose which kit to buy?

Any comments on my last question?

ZX2-HDSS: pressure increase 34% over stock
ZX2-XTSS: pressure increase 75% over stock

Also, I know that I have not added a lot of HP but the OEM clutch could not really handle a stock engine, and now I'm adding a cold air box, and header will the 34% increase ACT kit be enough?

Thanks Al

BTW, this was easily pulled off the ACT website, under dealers.

hmmm heard back from Sohfast...

only about 10% off full retail, so still looking...

Any comments about the strength of these 2 units behind a N/A with a couple of mods?

ZX2-HDSS: pressure increase 34% over stock
ZX2-XTSS: pressure increase 75% over stock

Also, I know that I have not added a lot of HP but the OEM clutch could not really handle a stock engine, and now I'm adding a cold air box, and header will the 34% increase ACT kit be enough?


Thanks!
