daily use clutch???

I am going for either the 6 puck or 4 puck...which is easier for daily use? I will not be driving daily but when I do drive I don't want it to be so difficult that I hate to drive my car. Please help me just on a decision btw these 2 clutches, thanks

I've driven a sprung 6 puck clutch with a lightweight flywheel and it was barely streetable. A standard non sprung 6 puck with stock flywheel would probably be the same, and with a LW FW it would probably be unstreetable. I think the ACT Street/Strip w/ or w/o a LW FW is good for the street, but it all depends on how much power you plan on having. The 4 puck in any config would probably be unstreetable.

ACT street clutch is fine for a daily driven FD. If you really are going to need anything stronger your car isn't fit to be on the street. You should be trailering that thing for the track.

ACT is fine for a FD under 500 rwhp.

I just got the 9.5# flywheel package from SRX7 which includes the ACT HD pressure plate and Street/strip clutch and I love it. If the thing had been in the car to start with, I would have believed it was stock (IMO, stock was just WAY too sluggish and weak!). The clutch is a little grabby to start with, but it breaks in nicely.
