The harder you are on the clutch, the shorter its lifespan usually is. If you plan on giving your Lancer a fair amount of (ab)use, then WORKS would definitely recommend the CK2. The CK1 is there for those who are looking for a better clutch than OEM at about the same price.

How is it different? DO you have to hold the revs higher or is it something you have to change in your technique? Trying to make some decisions on what parts can help me get my ET's down.

WADAD

Due to the lower rotating mass, the engine won't have the same amount of potential energy stored when the clutch pedal is released. This may require a slightly higher RPM to obtain the same launch. However, once you are in motion, your engine RPMs will increase quicker because of the same reason--lower rotating mass requires less energy to move it.

Jamie, do you still have that sale going? I'm interested. Also how much do you think is the labor to have this installed or is this easy to install?
