After a couple of days checking out everything and everywhere I have found that the Competition clutch twin disc is backordered, and no one have it in stock. Earliest possible delivery is some time in February. Another option could be Clutch masters FX850, but the price is really hard to swallow!
Have anyone tried "Spec mini twin"? Price is close to Competition clutch, but I haven't heard much about them.

Being in Norway, stick with something proven. I don't think the SPEC mini-twin is as proven as the puck clutches or even the SOS twin disc.

Twin disc clutches are supposed to be very driver friendly and offer great driveability..

I've never driven a s2k with a 6 puck so I don't know what that would be like, but I know 6 pucks are a bi*** to drive.. I have driven several cars with twin disc clutches and they are pretty close if not slightly better than oem feeling..

But since all clutches are not created equally, I guess the brand and material that you go with would effect that more positively or negatively..

I currently have the SOS Twin Carbon clutch, and driveability is great (my daily). Pedal effort is SLIGHTLY stiffer than stock, but it's only noticeable if you've been stopping/starting a lot. The slipping range however is quite different; it's much shorter so for the first few days it felt on/off but I got used to it. While expensive, it can be rebuild at a fraction of the cost. It's also nice knowing that I can pretty much throw as much power as I want at it and it will hold.

I've been happy with my ClutchMasters FX400 (6 puck sprung). Very light pedal feel (slightly heavier than stock), only a little chatter when starting from a stop (can be somewhat feathered).

Has never slipped on me @ 550/350

I will be running a built 2.2,10-1 engine with a 6266,precision turbo..... Possibly 1000 bhp, upto 870whp, around 600tq, with a Quaife 6speed sequential dog box. After some reaserch and the option of Carbonetic twin, clutch masters and competition clutch twin plate I was advised to go with the Competition clutch twin plate by people in the know. The clutch feel is quite heavy whilst standing but I cannot tell you what it's like in use as the car is not running yet.Thats the one I would go for.

Sorry about plugging my build but it gives some idea of what can be expected from the CC twin plate.

As a DD, is there any issues with excessive noise or chatter? If yes, when does it happen?

Only when I have the clutch fully depressed, and it's pretty faint; I only hear it if I'm next to another car.
