As far as clutches go, the exedy twin is pretty good clutch. Chatters a little. Not sure on what the prices are now because i know they bumped up the price bout a year ago. If you want a push style, Quartermaster is a pretty good clutch or converting an Exedy twin or triple through AMS. I know i've read bout the clips on the Exedy's breaking off on higher hp applications.

I don't know how the short throw feels.... It's still in the box. But it comes with everything you need to install it. Its the adjustable one so I am sure it does....

I have a Road Race Engineering "No Name Clutch." It's basically a modified ACT. It's a 3200 ft/lb pressure plate.

And no, I don't use launch control. 2-steps are for people who can't launch.

Good news well as of today it's off the lift. Bad news is the engine is still out. Have you thought about running the SD patch? Interests me, but it seems like a whole lot of work, that i don't understand.

Man you're over there almost every other day, haha. Just let me know if they push my car in and start working on it.

As far as tuning goes, i'm going to try a few things here and there. Going to be awhile for the tuning to be where i want it at as well. You could always just epoxy the MAF so it doesn't get sucked in. I talked w/Nick about the SD patch. He's worried w/weather changes the tune would need to be reworked.
