Ideal for heavy-duty street use and occasional drag racing, road racing, or drifting. The sprung MIBA ceramic material provides quicker engagement and may introduce some clutch chatter, which will minimize after proper break-in. Every kit is quality checked by experienced engineers with over 60 years of collective experience and signed off as safe before release, ensuring consistent performance every time.

Important Notes: Requires 500 street miles break-in with RPMs under 4500, no more than half-throttle, and no boost. Proper break-in is required to retain warranty and ensure longevity. Ceramic-based clutch discs are designed to increase holding capacity and durability rather than life expectancy, and may experience premature wear during easy street driving due to harsher engagement. Backed by a limited manufacturer warranty of 12 months or 15,000 miles covering performance, fitment, and function issues.
