Well as most of you know i need a new one. And i really don't have alot of money to spend on it. Do you guys think a normal Exedy will hold up? I can't afford 300 + for a new ACT setup.

im with eric on this one, i was gonna get the exedy and then everyone convinced me to wait and get the act once i had the money. im gonna call and see if i can get it installed this week. i got everything for like 550 and that was with a fidanza fly. nolimitmotorsports.com is selling the act kit for like 415 right now and thats where i got my stuff. thier pretty good to, free shipping and it was here in like 2 days. fly took longer cuz it comes straight from a warehouse but still like 4 days for that. i say wait and just save up the dough and then get something good

yeah i can drive it, But once i hit 4800-5000 Rpms it just doesn;t hold the power and slips. I'll just stick it out until it gives out 100% on me then get somthing stronger

deffinatly, if it's drivable, if your just driving normally, you wont take it over 4500 anyway.

I'd never run an exedy on boost. I've seen them grenade time after time.
