XTD clutches are cheap on eBay, and I know there are a few people on here who are running them.
Now, I'm pretty certain that I'm going to get an XTD clutch and the XTD 12lb flywheel on ebay. However, I'm not sure what stage clutch I'm going to want!
There is about a $50 difference between the Stage 1 and Stage 3.
The descriptions aren't that great, so I'm not quite sure what's what... however, I'm sure that any of them could handle my somewhat-stock H22. I don't intend for this clutch to last until I build the motor, so when the build happens, I'll get a REAL clutch I just want something cheap and stronger than stock right now... the flywheel is just because.
So, what I want is this:
-Something strong enough for occasional racing, and up to 200-220 whp (I don't dream of exceeding 220 in the lifetime of this clutch)
-Something that won't kill me in a daily driver... in traffic, on occasional joyrides, etc... I drive A LOT!
-Something that will last a while... say, 40,000 miles at least. My stock clutch has lasted twice that (if my motor really had 35k on it when I got it...) and I've beaten it to death!
If the Stage 1 won't handle the power, I don't want it. If the Stage 3 is overkill, I don't want it. If the Stage 2 is extremely similar to one or the other, I'd rather just forget it... the price is VERY close to the Stage 3 price for the Stage 2 anyway!
A little help would be great. I'm hoping to hear from those that are using XTD stuff now! Please, if you have no experience with this brand, and just want to say "why don't you buy an ACT" or something equally useless, please don't bother. I KNOW this isn't a top quality clutch, but it'll suit my purposes.
