              The stage 2 is rated for 258hp and arent you looking for around 400? You arent afraid of killing that thing? I will be doing 300 at the crank and im afraid to run the stage 2, i might get the stage 3 to be on the safe side. Let me know it grabs when the build is done. Keep the momentum going!!!!!

                  There's an E36 with a M50 @ 15psi locally with over 400hp who actually recommended the Stage2, and I passed the info on. 350hp should be cake for this clutch.

                  Keep in mind too that a stage 3 clutch is going to be On/Off - pain in the ass for DD/traffic.

                    but the stage 3 is a sprung disc although it is a six puck. would it really be that bad?

                      What I said didn't come up but, Yeah what he said lol. I would'nt really recommend it for a DD. But if it ends up chewing it up, I'll just go all out on it lol.

                            Agree. I always thought these motors were kind of ugly. Yours is sexy though.
