i have recently been spending too much time re(search)ing a clutch package and am curious if anyone is running the exedy hyper single clutch. it looks very interesting from an engineering standpoint. price $978 v the twin plate at $1500. i am looking for it all of course... a clutch that is streetable and will hold 5-600 hp along w the attendant torque. the hyper is advertised to have 2655 pounds of "clamping force". the twin plate has 2090. i will definitely need a conversion to foot pounds. anyone know? the clutch cover is forged aluminum and sits on towers which are part of the flywheel. (like a multiplate) they say that the cover shape allows higher leverage against the clutch spring making for an easier pedal. the disc appears to be a non-puck cerametallic with springs. the flywheel is chrome-moly w vents to promote air (cooling) circulation. if this unit will hold the torque i am going to sign up.

anyone out there run one?

I had one fitted the other day to my FD. Exedy UK rate is to hold circa 525BHP.



It's a digital clutch, wither engaged or disengaged. No much in the way of being able to slip it. I wouldnt advise it for road use.



It is a puck clutch with springs. Dont forget to order the counter weight, bearing and lever arm.
