Default Clutch Recommend for 400hp

Hey, I'm deciding to go with the Kraftwerks Supercharger kit. Right now I have 90k miles so upgrading a new clutch before the install would be great. I've been google on which clutch to get. I've deciding to go with ACT, but I don't know which setup is the best. Is there 3 pieces that makes up the clutch? Pressure plate, Flywheel and friction disc?. I'm for sure that I'm going with the ACT pressure plate. Is this the right combo ACT pressure plate, ACT Flywheel and Oem Disc. Or is it ACT Pressure plate. Oem Flywheel, OEM Disc (not to sure if there's a aftermarkter disc). Sorry I'm still new to these kinds of upgrades also about the buzzing noise. Is it that bad. Any suggestion/ reference would be great. Thanks~

Act pp with oem disc is the best. However, its pretty pricey but will last a bit pending the type of driving you do. As fas as flywheel, grab yourself a oem Ap1 flywheel new or if you find one used, have it resurfaced and your good. If you need anything, let us know.

I just had this clutch setup installed in my car yesterday. Pedal feel is just like stock, the car revs faster, it's easier to rev match when shifting, and it grips like hell. Biggest difference I've noticed is the clutch engagement point. Before I felt like I could let it out about 1/2 way before it would engage enough to get the car moving. Now it seems like I only have to let it out 1/4 of the way, so it took a little getting used to at first. Here are some links to where I got my parts.

ACT Pressure Plate http://www.moddiction.com/act/act-co...1/i-50500.aspx
ACT Streetlite Flywheel http://www.moddiction.com/act/act-fl.../i-389683.aspx

OEM Friction Disc 22200-PCX-055 http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/home.htm
OEM Pilot Bearing 91006-PCX-008
OEM Release Bearing 22810-PCY-003


You can also do the AP1 Flywheel as suggested above, but just looking at the cost of a brand new one at hondaautomotiveparts.com an AP1 FW is $274.85 whereas the ACT Steetlite FW is only $257. So unless you can find a used AP1 FW and have it resurfaced and the total cost will be lower than buying an aftermarket FW, I think it's more logical to just buy the aftermarket one.

Why can no one be bothered to do a little reading first? I've answered this in detail twice this week.

I'm still deciding on which Flywheel to get. I have a AP2. But i've read many revivews about AP1 FW on the AP2. Why doesnt anyone use the ap2 fw, is it that much of a drawback?

AP2 flywheel is 22 lbs
AP1 flywheel is 14 lbs

If you're supercharged, I wouldn't go much lighter than AP1 fw

Engagement point should not change. Follow pedal adjustment procedure in service manual to correct that.

I bought the SOS 11.0 lb flywheel. run fine revs up fine, sometimes off the line I have to give a little more gas while letting out clutch
the stock AP2 22lb I could just left clutch out with no gas and it would keep running.
if I did over again I'd try the AP1 14lb
