risky... for 100 bucks i'd say go ahead but... if it turns out to be crap, you won't realize it until you've already put it in.

even with it being new... it won't last long under boost.  i'd say you'll get mabey 4-6 months out of it before it starts slipping and that's driving pretty concervative.

I say 4-6 pulls out of it. The stock clutch can't hold ****.

Haha yeah, granted mine wasn't in the greatest condition to start with, I wore it smooth in a day.

ACT, Exedy, Clutchmaster, Centerforce, Fidanza.   all of these will do just fine.  get a street disk for the easiest engagement for a DD.
