I trust ECS and they like the mantics, and I know of several locals with 700-900rwhp running RXTs with no issues.

I got a LS9R now and it gets spongy on the dyno after a few runs. I don't trust it to hold the power and I'm leaning towards a mantic. RXTs are great though for the price. You can get them for <$1100 with flywheel so it is hard to beat that.
I've had some bad experiences with CF in the past as well, though that was a long time ago. As of late, most seem to be satisfied with their cf clutches.

I'm leaning more towards the RPS Triple Carbon for now, especially if I can get a great price. Plus, it'll leave me room to grow with a 1400hp limit.

What don't you like about the clutch? I've heard a few guys say it's a little grabby, some say the peddle is stiffer, but then a lot of people really like it. I guess it's that way with almost any car part though.
