Default Can't decide :(

Im on the fence with clutches, I don't know if I want a ACT 2100 with street disk, or the Fidanza 3.2 Kevlar 4 puck sprung. I want something alittle more aggressive then a street disk. According to Fidanza, the kevlar is very streetable and it's good for almost 400 ft torque, but some tell me to stay away from 4 puck..... help me out. I'm also going to be running a fidanza 8lbs flywheel.

I drove a 2600 in a AWD and loved it, but If i can get the same hold power for $100 less.... also, how recommended is it that I replace my clutch fork? I had my tranny off two other times in the past and never replaced it.

I have a exedy sprung 4 puck with a 3200 lb pressure plate. Much more aggressive. If you don't give it enough gas, you will stall the car, bc of the force it grabs with.

I don't think it has anything to do with modding cheap. it's still a ACT clutch. modding cheap would be buying some ebay no-name clutch. it just depends on if I need the extra 100 pounds of clamping force, probably not. but I have driven 2 dsms with a 2600, one AWD and one FWD, I liked how they felt. But I have never driven a 2100 so I don't know if they grab the same. they use the dame disk so I'm pretty sure they both grab the same, just with a lighter pedal on the 2100. I think I might stick with the 2100 full face disk, they are good for 350whp on a fwd and I won't be seeing that for a while
