Yes.....the newer stuff is designed around OEM hydraulics

Back in the day (first few prototypes) I had to run a larger master cylinder to get the right window / pedal feel for faster shifting etc. but the new pressure plates have different leverage ratios now so you don't have to invest in aftermarket hydraulics.....the OEM stuff works great and in fact is ideal IMO

I will probably have DRM do 4.10 gears also on my H/C/I/E 2003 6 speed coupe (433 rwhp / 396 tq).

Should I stick with Street Twin Carbon or would the Street twin Lite be a good option? Trying to shave weight so I can stay na and still be fast
Email me....we may get on the phone to quickly discuss it

No different than any other light clutch with a big cam (typically more difficult to tune for perfect drivability) but hey.....you put a big can in your car so good drivability is clearly not paramount here

The good news is big cams like RPM and most standard design clutches do not so you will appreciate the fact its really easy to drive this car hard and have it shift quickly and cleanly when the tach is 7K and beyond

I can say that an RPS clutch can be slipped very easily from a dead stop even with a large cam. My current BC2 weighs in at 32 lbs. and the cam has 50% more lift than most.

Then it looks at RPM and calculates torque. Its a bit *** backwards from a load dyno. A load Dyno MEASURES torque, then calculates HP from engine speed...which is more a more sound and accurate method.
