the flywheel is definatley a good upgrade, the exedy stage1 clutch is better than oem clutch because its made out of a stronger material, wont wear as quickly, and the clutch disk and pressure plate can handle a bit more torque and hp. you should feel a little bit more power from the lighter flywheel and less slippage of the clutch... most all clutchs slip a bit when shifting hard, the exedy slips less than oem meaning the power will be more directed to the wheels.

Couldn't have said that better myself.
I'm running the same setup and felt a big difference from OEM

the problem with EXEDY is they only either make a clutch with just a tad more clamping power than stock, or a freakin TWIN disk. there is no middle in between

from my experience with exedy:

stage 1- put in an H22 of a co worker, been there 4 months, has intake and exhaust, and hondata. never been to the track, only had street tires on it, done a few street races.......clutch is slipping


Race clutch- in a customers 2004 S2000- lasted a year, rough grab, very aggresive, still only lasted a year





contact username HONDAMIKE504 for a competetion clutch and flywheel for a killer deal

As long as you break it in properly you should have no clutch slipping issues. I love my Exedy stage 2 pressure plate with the stage 1 disk. It feels like driving a stock clutch but with a really hard pedal.
