centreforce has to have a line-up of clutches to suit ya needs. Any powerful car I have seen generally are running the centerforce line.

CENTERFORCE® DUAL FRICTION
or
DFX BY CENTERFORCE®

Screw centerforce.....Get a spec or a king cobra.I have a king cobra and put down 521 rwh with it and have no problems,plus the clutch pressure is very low to so traffic driving isnt that bad

I will also state that Centerforce sucks, esp the dual friction, it's just like a stock disc on one side and a 6 puck on the other. Try www.clutchnet.com they make some real nice discs, but I have not used their pressure plate. Other choices I like are RAM, and to lesser extent SPEC.
