700 mile Review of ACT Xtreme Clutch/Prolite FW...
Hey guys,
I recently had TURBODAWG install my ACT Xtreme Pressure Plate, Street Disk, and ACT Prolite Flywheel a couple of weeks ago. I went with Brian's suggestion of pairing the Xtreme Pressure plate with the street disk since the car is my DD. The setup is also good for about 550ft/lbs so it should last me a little while . Chris at NoLimit Motorsports hooked me up like usual with a great deal. Thanks Chris!
First of all, I just want to thank Brian and Chris for fitting me in on such short notice and for the quality work. I called Brian Tuesday evening, drove up to Hickory on Friday, and had my clutch installed by midnight on Friday. If any of you guys are ever in need of a great deal on a quality clutch install, look up TURBODAWG in Hickory, NC.
First impressions after the 500 mile break-in: Kinda grabby compared to stock but very easy to get used to. I don't notice it at all anymore. The engagement is smoother than stock thanks to the street disk. Launching is a snap, especially with my 2-step. I thought the flywheel was going to be a huge pain in the *** at first, but honestly, I can't even tell that huge of a difference with it. It does rev slightly quicker but it isn't noticeable at all. Overall, I am completely satisfied with the clutch combo I went with and recommend it to anybody who drives their car daily. If anybody wants more info, just pm or ask. Thanks guys!

I have the Unorthodox flywheel and HDSS setup. Seems to hold up nice on my car, 5000+miles with 2setup launches and 1 track day. I don't regret not getting the Exedy twin disc, although if the clutch does go, that will be the one I probably replace it with.

I've got the same set up with a 35R running 26 psi daily. It's held up great for me, with about 30k miles so far though most of that with a 3076.

Should have done your home work.
Did you have the restricter removed?
Did you get the extended clutch rod? Cause your going to need it.
Clucth will never settle. I speak from experience. You will be sorry. Read up before you buy. Biggest waste of money I ever spent on my car. Exedy Twin Plate the only way to rock! period.
