well at least the stage IV handles my car on boost only (590whp) but didn't like the torque added by nitrous, still hardly have any break in miles on it though. finally getting it out to daily drive for a week or two and hopefully it's back to holding for the oct 23rd race.
after that event, I"ll put the other twin disc back in and let you know how it does

(car ran 147mph @ 3600da in the 1600ft pocono race sunday on boost only)

I had this clutch installed in my car for 10 months, it worked great and I was very happy with it until it failed. I haven't heard of any reports of failures like this one from KY, hopefully it doesn't happen to anyone else!

Looks like a spring from the sprung disc came out. The disc is a off the shelf item, ky doesn't make that part of the kit.

More kits shipped out today. More in stock.

Is the stage 3+ really rated for higher torque the the regular stage 3? I always thought the puck style as the stage 3 would hold better then a full face ( 3+ )

KY does rate it higher, as the pressure plate is setup a bit higher spring rate than the normal 3.

2 more kits shipped out today.

I want to get a Ky clutch I am just afraid there could be an issue with it and I would have to pay another 880 dollars to swap it. I talked to my dealer this morning about it and they said all they do it scotch brite the flywheel. They don't replace them unless you have chatter. I hadn't heard that on here so I found that quite interesting.

We have sold over 500 of these in the last 1 year, with less than 5 issues; which could be installed wrong, no break in, etc.

I have waited almost a year to comment. My Stage 3+ is doing a great job of holding near 500/500. It has near stock feeling pedal and engagement. Very happy with results
