Alan and Taylor make me confident about my engine lol I've been pretty mean to it and haven't had any issues in nearly 4 years apart from when the chain tensioner broke 2 weeks after I got it.

Feels like stock but grips so much better and I think its the cheapest option.

GMPP is for sure the cheapest clutch. That's what will probably end up going in my car.

I had a south bend before my gmpp and hated it, there was no transition, it was either on or off. Lasted about a year, less than 20 passes on the track.

Closest thing to 6 you'll see is Jon's

Therefore... Tuning* would be a better answer than "running"
