I have the Z1 full face clutch and flywheel combo.. just like stock with a little extra pedal effort, including the engagement point. Rated to hold 500ft-lb.

Do to the speed the RPM ramps up when under boost with the lightweight flywheel. Over time, the clutch will start to slip a bit and create heat. That is when you get the smell. I personally want the on/off switch. The clutch will chatter a bit sometimes. I am OK with it. It beats replacing the dang clutch all the time. Time will tell if you have chosen wisely. Put 30k on it and let us know.

Makes sense to me... I guess I'll find out in the next couple of years!

This what happened to my on the SZ Street Max clutch and flywheel setup. It was fine and just like oem until I got my 100 octane tune. I was at just over 550 tq and it would start to smell if I had to slip it or hit it hard more than a couple of times in succession.
