Hey, I got the XTD racing clutch off ebay. Its the 6 puck copper ceramic one. 279.99 I believe. It fit great and handles the power of my ported motor great too. No slippage at all, great pedal feel and it really helps break the tires loose. It is the first performance clutch I've ever had, so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but it is a ridiculously great improvement over stock.

Whoa, thats a lot more than I'm running. I just have a huge street ported n/a, and I havent got my true dual exhaust on yet, so I'm only cranking like 170-180 whp right now. 200 is my goal, but a huge power turbo is out of my league. I can't say whether this clutch will be adequate for your application or not, but it feels great for me.

Please don't buy ebay performance parts. Go with someone reputable like ACT.

for a turbo, i would go for ACT as well, with 350hp you dont want to mess around with some ebay garbage, you will have to spend a little bit more money to control that power reliably. it really is best to spend money on an important part like that so that you wont have to replace it after a few thousand miles b/c it failed to take the torque. act quality is proven.
