No, but I put over 5000 miles on the original transmission with that clutch and when I sold it, it was in perfect working order. I installed my '02 trans in Elistan's car and we has put many more miles on it without any problems.

Explain? How do you know the clutch did this? I'm going two years now with no problems. Then again, I don't track my car. But I am sending a lot of power through it.
Perhaps the excessive heat generated from racing conditions caused the carbon disk to not completely disengage. They have also have revised their slave cylinder conversion design a few times.
The car in question was NA, the issue was more related to the increased extended thermal cycling during a racing event.

There is also a new Tilton clutch out. I think it may be competing for the title of lightest clutch/flywheel combo.

I'm doing Fidanza + ACT street/strip. I'm NA. Had this combo on my last car and it held up awesome. 2 seasons of autocross and 20,000 miles a year.
Not a single problem.

Rylan, I may have 2 custom designs that are different from all other clutch setups. There won't be as much weight savings compared to the ATS but one is close to OEM weight the other is a little lighter. PM me.

Exedy claims it's good to 500+ RWHP. I have about 35k miles on mine with about 340 RWHP.
