Fd clutch

Hi guys
Need some help in finding a good clutch for my 93 fd.
The goal is 450-500hp single turbo set up. I need something that is going to last
Mainly street use..maybe some track later on. Nothing crazy!

So, you are spending the money to make a high powered street car, but won't spend the money to make it driveable? That makes no sense. Do it right and go with a twin plate clutch.

You can go cheap with a single plate puck clutch which will hold the power, but you'll end up burning it out quicker since you need to slip a puck clutch to get the car going a lot more than something like a twin plate. The fact that you'll be driving it on the street means that driveability should be your goal.
