pressure plate for kraftwerks high boost
I was wondering if anyone had suggestions of which pressure plate/ clutch i should go with with the Kraftwerks high boost supercharger. My, 05, S is used as a daily driver so i don't want anything that is going to make it a pain in the ass to drive i was just looking for suggestions. Also i am planning on using an ap1 stock flywheel because i feel like 8lb is a bit to light where the stock one is to heavy. any help or suggestions would be great. Thank you

Science of Speed makes a perfect clutch for your Kraftworks power level wile maintaining the stock oem clutch feel. It offers 250trq/400whp holding capacity, 33% over stock.
I run an 8lb flywheel with my f22 but the 14lb ap1 is a great option as well. This clutch holds my power no problem.

I have an ACT HD pressure plate.
I have 20,000 miles on it with a KW High Boost kit. After three track days and hundreds of power shifts, it still bites like new. And my car makes 365hp/255tq on the Hondata Reflash.
What really amazes me is that it is forgiving enough to drive like a regular clutch, by that I mean you can actually slip the clutch if you are on a hill or ramp.
An AP1 flywheel is good, but I would definitely recommend a light flywheel, either an ACT or Toda to get the maximum benefit.

i would have no problem with either one of those flywheels but 8lb seems extreme for a daily driver. I am looking to have fun but not to have to feather the peddle every time i want to stay in vtec

I installed a ACT HD PP and factory clutch disc when I bought the car it was my first mod now I am making over 330ftlb's of torque at the wheels and it holds fine but when I went of 400ftlb's it finally started slipping.
I however would suggest that you keep the factory flywheel.

He has an AP2... cant keep that heavy flywheel in there lol but yes opt for an AP1 flywheel atleast.
SOS sport clutch has a lighter pedal compare to the ACT. I'd suggest the SOS since you DD
