I'm running a CC pressure plate with a act 6 puck sprung disc. Pedal pressure is like stock maybe a little stiffer but its very easy to daily drive, and it bites really good sometimes the pedal comes up too fast and it just goes. Almost on or off with this clutch. It gets a little buzz just like stock but i didnt buy this car for comfortability.

^why do you go through so much clutches? 4 clutches, even if you had the S from 2000 is waaay too much unless you keep upgrading..?
Well because its not all in one car...

I get to try them all because me and my friends all do the DIY install on our S2k... then I get to try them out before/after they are broken in...

Yea so I thought my Hardtopguy ACT was the $hit until I tried the SOS... then I immediately want to switch over...

Well obviously SOS isnt making their own clutches. Most aftermarket clutch companies dont make their own clutches, they just use peice and parts from bigger manufactures. Look at the clutch when you get it and see whats on it.. Valeo or LUK or whoever..

if staying NA should stay with oem clutch. Nothing else is needed. If planning to boost later on then depends on the power you are looking for.
Another vote for OEM. I've got 170k miles on mine and it has taken all of the abuse I've thrown at it. Why give up OEM reliability if you don't need more clamping force?
