Default Clutch discussion

Not to many discussions about clutch and with most people in the 350wrhp, i am assuming that you guys are running aftermarket.

So lets discuss what you have, please be specific, brand, stage, etc.

What you like about it? I.E, great for daily, grips great, etc

What you don't like about it? I.E., to stiff, chattering, no grip, etc.

I have heard mixed review about the competition clutch that inline offers, so if you have this clutch elaborate a little more please

Stage 3 competition clutch 6-puck style


Takes some getting used to for DD, but after a few days you can control it more or less like stock. It also grips harder then best pornstar out there. Rev her up to 5k, drop it, instant tire smoke. Great clutch for holding power.

Downsides are that it does take getting used to. It also has some clutch buzz but, personally, it makes my car feel more like a race car (its raw, you can hear all the noises, squeaks, buzzes).

Yeah I bought it through inlinepro.

It doesn't matter what your horsepower rating is, it all depends on the torque numbers (thats how clutches are rated). I'm not sure what the stage 2 is rated for but I'm running 8.5psi 360rwhp and 225rwtq (to give you an idea of what the torque number would be).

competition clutch stage 4/5, its one of the other, 4 puck.

It def. takes some time getting use to, when i put the clutch in it engaged way too high. I adjusted some of the play and it made it much more drivable. It grabs very hard.

The clutch buzz is worst then the OEM clutch buzz but i dont drive my car daily so its ok. In the begining it use to chatter but now that i am use to it, i can control it.

like the other clutch ppl mension, its also take time to get use to.
chatter a lot when i first got it, but after awhile you can control it.
but the griping is awsome. it goes in gear smoothly shifting at high RPM.

I am on the stock set up now, but I have this set up in my shed for if/ when I need it. The difference in mine is that I have the Comptech flywheel:
