i heard centerforce dual friction are good, thats what im going to get as my next one.

right now i have a SPEC stage 1, it performs great but i hate that it chatters like a B1TCH and is pretty hard to press down. then again ive seen people with 600+ RWHP with this same clutch.

I just installed a Ram HDX. Very smooth engagement. The pedal is a bit to soft for me, but it is stiffer then stock. Rated up to 450 hp.

I was personally a big fan of the King Cobra, its still slipable but has a good bit more biteforce than the stocker the pedal is a bit stiffer but gives you good feedback. Also its an FRPP part that doesn't have some ridiculously high TQ rating that you will never counter with your vehicle.

My TOB and clutch are starting to go after 93k. I am going with the FRPP clutch. For a full bolt on car thats all you need.
