Default Twin Clutch for 05 Mustang GT

I have a 05 Mustang GT that I race every friday night with slicks & NOS (150HP). I broke 3 Fidanza 5.4 clutchs last summer. Somebody recommanded a McLeod Street twin clutch. Has anybody installed a clutch that can really take a beating?

My last clutch



I'll let you know how the new one turns out, getting my car back today

edit: That clutch lasted the 500 mile break in, plus an additional 100 miles after LOL

So far no one has complained about the Mcleod RST that I know of. I like mine.

I like the RST alot. It is a very streetable clutch that will hold some big power and torque.

Have you viewed this thread yet.........

what's the advantages in getting the twin disc clutch vs a cheaper one like centerforce dual friction clutch or fidanza 4.1? i am shooting for around 550 rwhp in the future and looking to replace my clutch early 2009. obviously the twin disc holds more hp, but i dont think i need it, and it would save money if i get the CF DF clutch. i dont do a lot of racing, i intend on going 1-2 times per year, so i do mostly street driving. i would like to get the CF clutch, but i wouldnt want to discover that the CF DF clutch isnt enough and have to replace it twice.

Mcloed is $800 bucks though that two CF clutch. What about the P51 clutch.
