What clutch setup are most of you single turbo guys running?
I'm getting my car ready fot a single turbo. When my setup is complete, I'll be producing aproximately 450rwhp. What clutches have you guys had good luck with. I'd prefer to keep a sprung hub to be a little easier on the drivetrain. Currently I'm considering a clutchmaster's stage 4. Anyone running one of these?
Also I need to order a lightened flywheel. Any insight on what's going to be the best for my application? I've thought about a 8.5 or 9.5 wheel. I don't drive the car daily, but I do ocassionally get stuck in traffic. I'm not a drag racer really, but I do get in the ocassional stoplight battle. I do play from a roll a lot.
btw, my car currently has a clutchmaster stage 1 which I don't think is going to cut it any more. Is just getting a disk and using that pressure plate an option?
Thanks in advance!

I'm running what most people love to hate, THE CENTERFORCE DUAL FRICTION and it's been working find for about a year. I only have 300 FWHP, maybe the guys with over 400 FWHP are having problems with this clutch.

be aware that the centerforce for the FD is not Dual Friction.... there was no room to fit those little weights on the pressure plate....
to hold 450whp, you could use a ACT setup, or if you don't mind to spend big bucks, some twin plates are very streetable and hold big hp.
If you are considering doing drag racing, may be a lighten flywheel may not be the best upgrade.

Uh, "dual friction" has nothing to do with the inertial weights on most Centerforce clutch systems.  The "dual friction" describes the design of the clutch disc that uses two different materials on either side of the clutch disc.  The FD dual friction unit is a true dual-friction disk, therefore there is no false claims by Centerforce on their part.
