can anyone tell me how the XTG6 is for dd?
a couple of friends are using the HDG6 for their DD and they seem to be ok with it...i havent heard a complaint yet...

but i figure why not just fork out $38 more and get a clutch that holds more tq...can anyone give me a reason to not get the extreme clutch compared to the heavy duty? thanks!

I like the Fidanza 3.2. They modify the clutch material v. high pressure plate clamp load.

Everyone and the twin discs...those are overkill for lots of people. And expensive - there are other clutch options long before needing a twin/triple disc.

I agree, Go for the Exedy HD. Mine has performed very well for many years now.
