I'm not much of a racer, so the TT'd car will be a daily driver with a bit of spirited driving every once in awhile.

You'd want to go with the Max Street setup.

As of right now, we will see how well the masters and slaves will be holding up with our setup. If there is an issue that causes them to fail because of aftermarket clutches we will investigate it and do what we can to come up with a solution. Luckily our pressure plates do not demand a tremendous amount of pressure to release helping take the load off the hydraulic system. There was never a proper solution to the slave bearing & assembly out there until now.

I also want to double check whether the upgraded CSC is included with the price. Thanks!

personally I would love to see a upgraded master and slaves made. Mainly for the simple fact peace of mind. these cars are still fairly new and the age of upgrading the clutch is coming, and it is going to get big. Alot of people are already showing interest in upgrading them but are compelled to wait due to the issues others have had. We all know the problem exist and we know there is a demand for it so why not make it and add it as a optional package?

I must say though they look great, you would have my attention and wallet open if there was a replacement for the parts that have failed on others cars from upgrading.

I was reading your first l post with the introductory purchase and did not see this listed as one of the parts with the combo package...Can we get a break down and some pics of the upgraded CSC that your company manufactures?

It's not just a ring but a replacement of the complete bearing and sleeve the bearing goes over and seal presses into.

You can see a picture of it below the factory installed unit. For those on the fence worried about the rest of the hydraulic system giving out you can wait and see what happens to see how things play out.

I think your product and pricing look good but Killer Bee and a few others have documented the weakness in the CSC. Not to start an argument but your response means that the purchaser of this clutch is assuming a lot of risk. I appreciate your confidence in your product, but that won't cover the bill for a new CSC.

Well, we've done something no one has at this point. We've replaced part of the factory CSC. People will need upgraded clutches and if required we will do what we can if our version of the modified CSC fails.
