Notice the different rivet count in the disc and slightly different pressure plate design too.

Correct. Much firmer pedal, meaning more muscle to depress the clutch. It will also start grabbing much sooner when you first take the pedal off the floor.
I've been racing my ACT street clutch for about a year and it's approaching the time where I'm considering a new one.

I have knee problems ...which Im going to have to go to the Dr for. I want to have a 300whp tC within the next few years. What do you think is the best clutch for my hp level? The torque level would be 270max because im s/c'rgd. Even if i had 320whp that should give me 270torque about.
