It seems its good to have a strong clutch until you get above 400 or so, then you dont want much more if you like to launch, otherwise t-cases and such start disagreeing with your engine...

RPS's break, I have not seen any Tiltons have problems up to date.

A customer of mine just loaded up his car with passengers and decided to demonstrate the AEM launch control on a 2003. Bad things happened with the transfer case.

Tilton=True Carbon on Carbon
RPS= Metal on Carbon
Exedy= Metal on carbon

Tilton makes the most hardcore clutches out there for racers.

I would agree, not the best move on a 2003 TC.

Lol, that wasn't very smart at all. I'm going to launch it, but certainly not with a full car of people and no 2step.
