ACT extreme pressure plate with the 4-puck. Hours of chattery, stalling fun. but then you get the hang of it and barking 3rd becomes second nature.

I bought the ACT Street Performance and it ran me about $270. Plus I needed a few bearings with it so a little over that. Got it from Cork Sport.

Corksport said that it took them 8 hours to install their clutch on their project MX-3 car.

For a little more streetability, go with the extreme pp and the organic disc. It can hold 255# of torque, heavy traffic is killer on the quad. 8 hours to install a clutch is a little overkill unless that includes the time to have the flywheel machined. I can have the tranny in and out in about 2 hours when it is on jack stands.

I didnt install it myself. It was put in during my swap so I really couldnt tell you how long it took them.
