It's a good clutch for the money. A Spec 2 is a lot for your car. You don't really need it. The King Cobra is cheaper and a better daily driver clutch. Most people don't have problems with their King Cobra. However, I've had my clutch for 2 years (about 20K) and I don't really beat on my car either. My clutch disc hub just busted out on me about 2 weeks ago. I had to replace my clutch disc. It wasn't a pain for me since I did it at work the next day. Even with the problem I had I still recommend using the King Cobra.

If your planning on going with more upgrades in the future I would go with the spec 2. I really like my spec and the 2 will have alot more room to grow than the KC.

What are your ultimateE.T. goals? 12.0 or slower...Been there done that and a King cobra is fine...lots of hard launches and track time. with 11 's e.t's or fasterin mind a spec2 would be better....then comes the spec 3+ ....

I got king cobra, i love it. Pedal feels very firm/hard, grips great. They are right Spec is too much if you aren't pushing 350 rwhp.
