Exedy Twin Metallic HD vs Exedy Triple Metallic

I am in the market for a new clutch. I am currently running the Exedy Twin Metallic HD and was thinking of upgrading to a TRIPLE disk.

So i wanna know is

Pressure Plate Difference in feel?

How much Power are u making? and which clutch you are using?

How many miles do u have on your clutch?

Problems?

Thanks

Switched from a twin to a triple, same pressure plate so it feels identical.

currently about 575-580whp

5500

none to report, though it is louder on decell (not surprising) and when the clutch is pushed in

Did you also upgrade to push type?
how much it cost to convert twin to triple?
part # to buy?
Im on 34K miles/lots of passes at the track on my twin hd and I know will need to rebuild sometime

I went from twin to triple. I believe the part #'s are the ones below. 3 disks and two intermediate plates.


2 x IMO2
3x DM11R

Just curious but is there a reason your wanting to stay with exedy? Why don't you switch to a different company that holds more torque capacity that's a twin disk?

Or is there a certain torque rating that most switch to triple disks?

well i am interested in the Tilton Cerametallic/ Organic but i have another thread up trying to find out if the pressure plate, and clutch engagment are street friendly.

But reason i am going with Triple Disk is i am going bigger turbo where torque exceeds 600

If you plan on running low 11's our better, do your self a favor and get the triple. It is just as streetable as the twin and will hold a lot more torque.

On anything larger then a stock turbo I pretty much recommend the triple. As far as the push style TOB goes, I don't think it is needed. We used to pull clips out all the time and now there is a fix for that. last year we did not pop a clip once.

^ thank you. My concern between the twin and triple disc is pretty much solved. OP go with triple disk. Don't worry about being streetable, you gotta sacrifice something for more. ;-)

About how long to triple discs last, let's say with normal eveyday driving with maybe twice a month or so at the track?

Which fix do you use? TTR clutch fork stop or extra wave springs?

We have the fix being released this week. We used a stop similar to the TT fork stop all last year with no issues. Before this I was popping out the clip every time we hit the track so I am confident we have found the issue and solution. I can post pics of the rapid prototype in a few minutes. If anyone is interested in ordering one they will be 75.00 shipped or we can offer them in a package deal with a clutch.

I found the triple to be more easy to drive than my twin when I upgraded.

Isn't it true that the more surface area you have the easier it is to slip? So all things being equal a twin will be easier to slip than a single, and a triple easier to slip than a twin.
