Clutch for 10sec 1/4

I am looking for a Clutch for a 10sec 135+mph 1/4mile Evo 7, I have tried a Exedy carbon and found it to be lacking so I need something that is at least 20% upgrade over that one,
I have been told by AP that the carbon Clutch's they use for racing wont last very long but I have seen that one's Like the RPS one is meant to last,
Has anyone had experiance with any units for this aplication.

RPS Pro Drag is the clutch you want if you are looking for a multi-plate that can handle that. It is currently being developed and should be out by the end of the month/begining of November.

It is as durable as a clutch could ever come. You cannot burn, glaze, or weld it together! It is a very streetable like a stock clutch. This amazing clutch will be your last one to ever purchase for your EVO8 since it has a rebuild program that is extremely affordable and has a warranty to back it up!

Geo and I were talking about the twin disc Carbon-Carbon from RPS Sku#CC-16001-TWN-PRO. I hope that helps.

Dont know anything about the tripple Exedy, But there twin carbon one that they rated to over 600ftlb cannot take 500ftlb let alone 600, And the customer care in the UK is Crap so they will only screw Me or my friends once.
