Well more importantly you should look at your horsepower goals and decide if they'll happen soon or later down the road.

Staying with stock twins: Street/Strip will do fine

Going single and looking for 500hp+ soon: (IMHO) 6 puck'


If you're going single later on(not soon at all) then no sense in struggling driving a 6/4 puck when you don't need it right now.

I agree- get a full face organic disc but use a racing pressure plate. I recently installed the new PFS clutch setup with the newly updated lightweight flywheel. The setup will hold well over 450 lbs of tq. So even if you do consider getting a single turbo in the future, it should hold or you could even upgrade the disc.

I agree that a 4puck would not be a great choice for daily driving. I have a 6puck in my integra and it's ok.

ACT street strip is what you need. I used this clutch for a long time and when i went single turbo I kept the same heavy duty ACT pressure plate and just upgraded the disk to the unprung 6 puck. The 6 puck disk was just 130 bucks or something so I didnt have to do 2 complete clutch kits once I went to my 400+ rwhp Single turbo upgrade.

i love my new setup in my fc. i got the ACT extreme pressure plate, with a mcleod industries 800 series disk. the disk is awesome, its pretty much the same one thats in my buddys hemi roadrunner that makes 520hp to the wheels and stands up to a 4200 pound car on slicks except his like a 10.5 inch disk. its got an aluminium/organic compound on one side and 8 kevlar pucks on the other. http://www.mcleodind.com
