Didn't mean to derail. I was afraid after 20+ miles on my clutch I would have to completely rebuild.....for the money I was looking at other choices. Came across this and was looking for info while my friend was using the Carbonetics doc to determine what needed to be replaced.

I have been running the 6leg version 1 QM, and I daily drive about 50miles each way in LA traffic. The only thing I never really liked about the version 1 was all the decel noise. Out side of that I cannot even tell it is a twin plate race clutch. It drives very well. So this new version should just kick so much ***.

Longevity is something time will have to tell. How much mileage on average while driving the car normally. Some launching.....maybe an autocross or 2...and of course daily driving.

I never really understood the craze of these street twin discs. My single disc ACT is rated at 500ftlbs and I have zero shifting problems even up to 8k. :shrugs: Maybe it is the lack of funds that will never allow me to purchase a twin disc, but is it really worth it? Even stock turbo guys are running twin discs.

i personally could shift at 7k and then it would lock me out like clockwork at 7200.
with out fail. it would catch synchros everytime i tried shifting it fast.
now i have a exedy twin and can bang gears without a problem .. they sound like poo but shift perfectly
