500whp on ACT 6 puck

i just got tuned on 27psi on my 35r kit and i know forsure soon my exedy stage 2 will give out.....
im kinda on a tight budget right now, so i was wondering how many people with 500whp have the act 6 puck, and how is it holding power..

I would stay away from anything act. Take my word for it. Look into a spec super twin as I am saving up for one and so far it has gotten great reviews.

i have the same power and my act 6 puck hd took a crap with 8k miles. it never went into fourth without a fight at redline. i since bought a quartermaster twin disc and couldnt b happier. trust me if u dont have enought for a twin disc just save up until u do cause u will b waisting ur money on a single disc. quartermasters r under 1400 depending where u go.

ACT 6puck here on a GT37R and all the goodies, no issues no lockouts. For daily driving its a good compromise. Keep in mind all of them are give and take when it comes to drivability and durability.

I haven't had it on a dyno because the closest one is about 3-4 hours away but I would guess at around 550+/- on regular pump gas and alky (AMS Built LongBlock). I ran the ACT Street before and it would not hold completely on my STOCK long block after I switched to a GT37R. So when I built the motor I switched with another ACT and I am not disappointed. I have not ran it at full tilt yet though but I think it will do just fine.

I was running 500/500 on an ACT street disk that is still holding strong but starting to slip up top after a lot of miles on it. I would imagine the 6-puck will hold your power for a while; I believe TurboTrix has run 9's on that clutch.

We have used these clutches in 500whp cars with no problems.
