Had an Exedy Twin and then my power level went above 650whp - upgraded to a Exedy Triple.

Stocker lasted until 83k miles. Before it started slipping a bit. Moved to an Exedy Stage 1 HD and love it, pedal feel is nearly identical to stock clutch when you get used to it.

I have an ACT Streetlite with a ClutchMasters FX200, very nice. Only complaint would be the area of engagement is narrow. Car makes 300whp/320wtq on a Mustang dyno.

My stock clutch went bad 3 or 4 months ago so I purchased the Exedy stage 1 HD. Love it, perfect pedal feel for a performance street car. Heavier than stock by about 25-30%, but you get use to it real fast. I would recommend it for sure

Have the ACT HDSS, feels like stock, love it. Works great with a mildly modded car.

My mechanic insisted that I stay with the stock clutch for reliability. It works fine.

Stock clutch lasted to 100k, was still ok when I switched to Comp stage 2 when I built my motr. Comp stage 2 seems to be holding quite well with 2.3 with fp 71. Great setup for DD.

I stayed with the stock clutch and it holds up well. I hate all that clutch chatter

+1 Comp stage 2 is a great clutch. Full faced so it's great for daily driving, and still holds tons of power.
