im just looking for around 200+/-hp(wheel), and the wonderful sound of a bov. how much does a new clutch run? $300? around there?

[Doughboy]

$300 + for a stage 1 exedy.. Not including when you upgrade the flywheel. I've seen some kits go anywhere from $550-600

Exedy...bleh. I've seen a bunch of exedys grenade under high power...I'll never run one.

well brand wise I dont know which ones are the best and worst.. i only have 4 gears here haha. But i remember seeing the prices on the packages you showed me for my friends GSR, so you take $50-$100 off for his civic and theres a ballpark figure.

Bo are you just focusing on the clutch or are you going to upgrade the flywheel along with it? Might as well get an OEM replacement if your not going all the way with it.

like I said, I am just looking for like 200hp(wheel). To start off. I dont know if I would need to replace my fly wheel, you guys are the experts though...

[Doughboy]

If your going with a stage 1 street performance clutch its necessary to change the flywheel if you want to feel the difference, OEM replacements are just replacements but upgrading to a performance clutch means nothing without the fly.

Even though i drive an auto, I do know that much.. When it comes to quality refer to are techsquad champs brett, or resistance98.

He doesn't have to change the flywheel, but he'd get quicker acceleration with a lightweight flywheel. Upgrading to a performance clutch does mean something without the flywheel. You get the stronger clamping force than the stock clutch, so it can hold more power.

Perfectly said. I dunno about going to light of a fly.
I dont know for sure but isn't it a bit better to have a
little heavier fly for a turbo setup?

Just what i've heard dunno if this is true.

well should I get a light weight fly, or a standard fly?

[imported_Lacuna]

Just do them both at the same time.
