just to let everyone know that saad saad did put down 1400+ rwhp on the rps carbon carbon, but he is also looking for a new clutch since it won't hold the power when he drags. His times are very non-consistent with his best time of a 9.900. Everything from that was from mid 10's to 11's. He just can't get those goodyear slicks to hook. I think he's leaning towards a tilton carbon clutch.

Thank you for asking. The total assembly weight is 31lbs. The clutch diameter is 9 3/4" for all wear surfaces and clutch width is 1 3/4". RPS is the only manufacture to produce Carbon-Carbon model specific on the EVO 8. Making it the only company also that provides a rebuild program for all friction mating surfaces. This will be the last EVO 8 clutch that you purchase.

Or the FW weight?
Cheers,

FYI, I asked Rob/RPS president about the flywheel weight. It's 3 lbs less than stock. For reference, IIRC, he said the Exedy twin plate FW was 10 lbs lighter than stock. My guess would be the two units, stock and RPS, total weight should be about the same.
Anyone know the weight of the stock unit including flywheel? That should get to the answer I think you were looking for Zeus; Does the RPS add any weight over the stock unit?
