I asked about the zoom a while back people said only get the stage 2 or larger if you plan on putting any type of horsepower down. I really liked them for some reason, maybe the pretty colors

Centerforce dual friction is great if you don't go over 400 rwhp. If your planning to go over that don't waste your money.

I had the CF DF and it sucked. It slipped on DR's the first time out and I did the proper break in. The disk on those is made of organic material not great for the street but poop for racing. I went with a spec stage 3 and never looked back. -Mark

WTF is proper break in ..? Is clutch break in the same absoloute bullshit as engine break in? Cause last time i checked people dont put 25,000 miles on a race car before racing it. IDK i think the industry has set break in standards to burn up warrienty before ya beat on it. If its shitty at 25 miles its gonna be shitty at 25,000

all those big ass clutches are great for a 800hp RACE CAR. Steve0 has a bone stock daily driver. I wouldn't want to drive back and forth to work in bumper to bumper traffic with a spec3...

Ive got a spec2 in mine. Its the only clutch Ive used in my car so far. I wouldnt know what another one felt like so I guess Ive got nothing to compair it to. Ive got no complaints about it.
