Zero, you like my Stage2, right? It has yet to slip...with my miniscule power...but you're so damn light, I don't see you needing much more than that.

Ummm...I may be eating my words here, but I honestly though the stages were set in stone for the amount of power they could handle, regardless of the application. If I am wrong, I apologize.

if this is gonna be your daily driver and you're set on going with a pucked, I would stay with the sprung hub.

500hp is about 330ft/lbs in a honda so i'd say a full face copper impregneted organic with a dual diaphram pressure plate may be just able to handle it.

a full face iron will drive just like an organic and hold like a 4 puck.

anyone really. i've always used clutch specialties. clutch masters is starting to advertise them as well.

but since its release as a new import design a couple years back and alot of racers using them, alot more companies are offering the full face iron.

i would of used it on my daily car but i dont know its wear propensity. if it wears like a copper clutch does, i'll keep it only for drag use. but i havent taken apart the race car since i put it together last year.
