Arrow Clutch for FI

Which clutch do we like these days when it has to be smooth to operate, make no buzz and hold 500 hp? Thanks

Is it smooth and with no buzz and how much torque is it holding? Do you also use the car for track days?

How much do you want to spend is the question here.

Well the pressureplade is a strong version and almost new (now fitted with ceramic hub) so it would be great if it would be sufficient to change the hub, else I hope to spend less than 1000 $

the bearing is what all aftermarket companies have not been able to make better than Honda when it comes to clutches

If anything fails on a clutch its the throwout bearing -get a genuine honda one no matter what clutch you decide on.

500hp on an act combo is pushing the absolute limit of that clutch. Mine and several others slipped in the 400s on it. Over 500 is approaching twin disk territory. Im on a CM sprung FX500. Its a bit grabby but it gets the job done. I can't comment for other clutch manufacturers but clutchmasters includes all OEM bearings in their kits...the oem throwout bearing alone is $130
