Does Exedy still make a single plate clutch?

Time for a new clutch...I'm using an ACT 40% pressure plate on a stock disk and want to upgrade but can't justify spending $1500 on an exedy twin plate. I remember seeing a single plate clutch from Exedy that came with a flywheel (I think Maxcooper has it) a while back. Does anyone know where I can get this? It needs to be able to handle 380rwhp...

The single from Banzai looks like the one.

I have a Exedy Stage I single organic, and 320 rwhp is about the limit of my clutch. My organic was a lot cheaper than the Hyper clutch, but if you're at 380, you're probably going to want the cerametallic disk so the clutch doesn't slip during those 1-2 hard shifts.

Again, this is from someone who has the Exedy Stage I organic. The ceramic will grab faster, which will take some getting used to, but that's better than having a ridiculously heavy pressure plate (i.e. high clutch pedal effort) or a disk that can't hold the power.

I have an ACT extreme, which should hold it--even with stock disc. Wanna trade?

Thanks guys. Anyone have experience with this clutch? Will it be good enough for 380rwhp? Also, is this a push or pull type clutch?

FYI:
It's the pull type clutch in my FD, ACT rated at 451ft. lbs. of torque with the organic street disc; more with the race discs. That is the equivalent of 601hp @ 7000rpm. Seen street use only, never been raced. I don't need this much clutch for daily driving.

Maybe I should just stick with teh street/strip setup with ACT. Unless someone can convince me to spend $1500 on a twin plate clutch.
