exedy triple is way way way more streetable then a tilton.

The exedy still uses the same diameter as a stock disk where the tilton uses much smaller disks

I've had an Exedy twin HD and Tilton twin carbon...the Exedy had better street manors...a bit more predictable engagement and the heavier weight mean fewer stalls. I feel like a first time driver with the Tilton sometimes and it rarely stalls on decel when you push in the clutch. It took a little more tuning time to get that under control.

I wouldn't bother with a carbon clutch for a street car.

I have a Tilton C/C in my car and my buddy has a Exedy triple cerametallic in his. The street manners and driveability of his car are MUCH better.

Tilton all the way. I have a HKS twin disk though and love it for a everyday street driven car. Clutch peddal is smooth.

I never had problems with my Exedy Twin HD for almost 2 yrs now. And I always drive it like I stole it whenever I have the chance and still holding up pretty well.

There is a new clutch im testing right now. I would have to say it is the best clutch out to date for street/strip. Its Carbon/Carbon but was made to help with the problem of Carbon being bad for the street. I will post pictures later but all i can say is i have had a Tilton, Quarter Master and Exedy and this new clutch is by far the best so far.

The only way you would want a Tilton Ceramametallic over an exedy is if you plan to seriously track the car.

ive gone thru a tilton hybrid twin(organic disc/cerametallic disc) which lasted me a year on daily driving with some spirited driving, Ive got the tilton twin cerametallic, honestly neither are very good for daily driving because they grab like HELL & still stall here & there just cuz of short clutch play...So my vote is NO for daily driver but yes for tracking!!!
