I know people use those and they work.

I am going to cough up the extra monies for a FM Stage 1

Mainly because I know it will hold the power I will want to make, and the reviews I have heard from everyone have been nothing less than stellar.

Clutch pedal also apparently feels like stock.

Also FMs customer service cant be beat.

goodwin is fairly good from what i hear, fm is awesome. the stage one kit is on my car, and i wouldn't hesitate to use another.
Also, while your doing the clutch do the clutch master and slave and replace all the fluid.

good-win is a legit company...but I bet you can find an Exedy stage I for less elsewhere.


What sort of power are you looking out of the car? That clutch is decent, but depending on power goals, I'd lean towards the FMI or ACT HD.

My plan is to do the basic turbo you talked about, around 5 psi.

the exedy will suffice...i'd still prefer an fmI--best bang for the buck clutch for sure.
