NENO, that clutch blows. It might be nice if you had 500 HP behind it but
other than that like I said it blows.

I'm aiming for the stage 4 IPT clutch because of my
driving habits & the mods lined up for the summer. So
far i've turned a 14.7 w/ no traction and no LPM and
the CE light on. The last run was the fastest.... and
scariest. After the trans is stronger, i'm aiming for
some stronger axles, a spray kit, and P&P heads w/
cams. That and the goodness of some extra insurance
for the harder driving this car will be put through. I
figure it's worth a bit more dough.
