I have an unsprung ACT on my stock FD transmission and don't have too many issues. Certainly not the best choice but it's manageable for sure.
Yep. I used one on a DD FD for about 2 months and I wouldn't recommend it for any type of street use. Makes zero sense.
On a track car it will save you a few tenths so if you really need those 10nths to get on the podium then go for it. I'd never put a unsprung disc on a track car unless I was racing for a living/money.
Anywho I'd seriously recommend putting in a sprung 6 puck minimum (which you will still need to slip a little in traffic). If you don't have over 400 HP then no need for a 6 puck and it will be a pleasure to drive, you won't have to slip the clutch etc....
PS The car I bought that had the non sprung clutch also had solid motor mounts. ANOTHER really big problem or something I'd never do with this car. Solid mounts work great on 911s but they absolutely suck for the FD.

car at will be closer to 600hp with water meth and it is being built as a half mile car for the beast coast shootout events. Always on set to kill mode.

Makes no sense to go unsprung. There are plenty of good clutches that have good street manners and still hold way over 600whp. Why would you want to make a car less enjoyable to drive while not gaining any performance benefit as a trade off?
