How much difference in a 6 puck? What kinda material
 
Still looking at clutch options and I was wondering how much of a difference a 6-puck would be? I'm fairly sure the clutch that came with the car isn't stock, as it's pretty heavy, but I just don't know what to compare a six puck to. I was also wondering about the friction plate materials like an organic plate as opposed to a carbon-kevlar plate? Any advice/info would be appreciated.

only thing with the 6 puck is harsh ingadgement.
not sure about the other question??

About the material, I generally don't know what advantage one has over the other? I would imagine the carbon-kevlar to last longer, but again, that's just a guess.

Unless you have a high hp single turbo car and are racing, there is no point to a 6-puck clutch IMO. Why do you think you want this? A much more streetable setup would be to go with a dual-disc clutch, like the Exedy.

I'm not sure I wanted it, that's why I was asking. I hope to go single in the near future, but that's probably not going to be for a while realistically. I just figured if the difference wasn't too terribly bad, I'd go ahead and get the strongest that I could because I don't want to be dropping the transmission again any time soon.
