me too. this clutch is nice. i installed it expecting to get clutch shudder and really haven't even had that issue. i think it's good up to around 300whp so even if you boost your setup (moderatly) you should be fine

if your gonna step up and get a nice clutch go all the way and get a lightened flywheel.

Clutches aren't rated for HP, just torque. HP is a function of torque.

I would recommend going with a clutch that barely exceeds your torque goals for the engine. Over all you will be saving your leg and engine from uneeded stress. I have trusted a company called Clutch Specialties with all of my engines. Never had a single problem with their products either.

flywheel isn't going to make any difference on how it performs really, just how it feels.. it may rev quicker when downshifting or in neutral.

The only possible downside I have heard is it might make launching the car more difficult..

Yea I figured you were, I refer to the track as.. the track and the dragstrip as "the strip"
