Alright, after 1 year of no mods to my S, it is time to invest in her again. She is going to be getting a touch up on her paint and most likely a clear bra, but it is the other mods I could use some input in.

My setup currently is a Vortech S/C with stock vortech ecu and a Mugen Header. I am pushing about 300hp to the wheels.

I was considering upgrading the clutch and the rear diff. For a diff. I was considering going with the group buy on the Comptech reinforced with 4.57R (based on Ron's recommendation of performance).

What I need some info on is clutches. Which parts of the clutch should I definitely upgrade and which manufactures have good equipment for what I have. P1 is recommending a ATS Carbon Clutch kit. However, I have heard good input on Toda, Comptech, ACT, etc. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I have the comptech diff with the original 4.57's and LOVE it. I say do it! I have the Hardtopguy clutch kit on mine and love it, too: ACT pressure plate, Honda friction disc and bearings, comptech flywheel.

 

SC,

Thanks for the input. That setup either with the Comptech or the Toda is a common recommendation. Here is a link to a new clutch kit that I have not heard of that Jack at P1 Automotive recommended:

I have driven an S with a stock clutch, toda flywheel, and ACT pressure plate. It drove nice, easy for some street driving and strong when you need it to be. Would you say the comptech is comparable?

That's exactly how I would describe it. Initially, it's more 'grabby' than stock, but not so much that it's annoying. You get used to it pretty quickly, then you forget about it.

 

What did you think about the link to the Carbon Clutch site.

Change of plans for now. After this weekend I got a great idea for a new mod for Victoria.

As soon I as I complete it, I will post some pics. Thanks to MyBad for the suggestions, I think Victoria will really enjoy her new mod!!
