I love my Exedy Twin Disk, but most people wont spend that kind of money for a clutch.
Although I have heard something bad from almost every company, the ones with the best track records on SL so far are Clutchmasters and ACT

I bought a Clutchmasters FX400 6 Puck Sprung Ceramic Clutch and i had it installed alittle more then a week ago and i absolutely love it. It engages and disengages extremely fast, and feels very smooth and i hardly notice the difference in stiffness from stock. It is alot closer to the floor but i like it way better. Im MORE then pleased and i would definitely recommend this clutch to any one who wants to upgrade.

I want to go with an ACT next, ive had 2 Failed CC's and a CC twin disc that sounded like ____. but it worked... lol, Mikes CM twin disc was alot smoother and less noisy than my CC twin. CC is just not quality.

When choosing which clutch to go with I was recommended either ACT or Exedy. Both of these companies seem to have pretty good feedback on SL.
I'm running the Exedy stage II cerametallic clutch which is a three puck design. I just finished the break in and I really enjoy it so far. Definitely recommended to anyone looking for a new clutch.

ya not many other clutches can hold the tq these cars make.... 300+ on 8-10 psi.. now many ppl run e85 and higher boost even on stock motor we need something to gaurantee us to last.

Chris has a Spec Stage 3+ thats lasting, dunno how at 400+wtq (spd_rcr) :/ I had a Spec Stage 3 disc with stage 4 pressure plate that failed on me within 6000 mi 
(Springs came out of the hub), I than went to a Clutchmasters FX500 (solid disc) and after 2 weeks I made my first pass on the track - it snapped every rivet holding the hub to the disc :/ So now Im on my 3rd clutch since going to manual swap - Im runnin gthe ACT 6 puck sprung hub with HD pressure plate - rated at 499tq. Ive been using this clutch now for 4500 miles and its holding up awesome, no slipping, smooth engagement, and no noise - WHATSOEVER! Im not 100% sure what cause my other 2 failures, but I know the ACT is holding up great! Im planning on RMA'ing the FX500, but I havent had a chance to send it back. Spec just plain told me it wasnt covered under warranty when I called them about theirs :/ Keep in mind, while I was running the spec, I was at only 12 psi on low compression, so I highly doubt I was over the recommended torque...
