Default Spec Clutches

My tuner that im about ready to send my car to just became a spec dealer. Do you guys have an opinion for or against spec clutches? I was thinking of getting a stage 3 just cuz i dont wanna go to small and i want to make SURE it bites. Let me know what you guys think?

if you dont have 600rwhp or more going with a spec stage 3 is overkill. i had a stage 2 in my cobra and it was a nightmare during rush hour

I have a Spec Stage 3 Plus, and I LOVE IT! Pedal feel is on the heavy side, and it takes about a week to get used to the release point, but it GRABS! Once you get used to it, its not difficult at all...
