I have a ram heavy duty racing clutch. It's a stage 3. It's very heavy, meant for racing...I'd Rather a stage 2 for driving. My leg sometimes depending on the drive starts to get a work out cause its a heavy clutch. Recommend if u change ur clutch to get an adjustable clutch kit. Helps with your grab point and play in the pedal. As far as stage 2 clutches go, havnt heard any really good brands. Can't help ya with the choice of clutch...

I have absulutly no experience with performace clutches but I will say what Iv learned from being on this site...

Iv heard LOTS of mix thoughts on spec clutches, Good and Bad...
Iv also heard good things about centerforce, their rated for good power check um out..

The most important thing Iv heard is the break in period is a VERY important thing!

spec 3+ for sure. VERY streetable and will handle that with ease.
Breakin, breakin, breakin.

I would recommend a Ram Powergrip clutch it holds up to 550 to the rear wheels and has a nice pedal feel.

Had a spec 2+ on my 02 gt w/ about 400 hp loved it. Have a spec 3+ in my cobra and I despise it
