Alright so its time for a new clutch and Im pretty sure im going to get the ATC clutch kit but what would be a good fly wheel to get with it? Sadly my clutch gave out on the dyno at 350 so I want a good strong clutch set up for a good price.....

Any of the ACT clutches and flywheels are good. I would go with the 3200 xtss with the sprung street disc and a streetlite flywheel. It'll hold all the power you can make on a stock block, decent street manners and will hold up to the occasional drag launch.

If your car is still under warranty, go to RRE and get one of their "no name" clutches and flywheels. They look like the stock clutches and flywheels so a dealer would easily overlook them.

i have an ACT HDSS with the ACT streetlite flywheel and love the driveability! my gf has no problems driving it neither.. i used to have an ACT 6 puck and that clutch was a bitch to daily drive for sure. Im in the ~400hp/tq range and the ACT HDSS has no problems whatsoever handling the power.

edit: oops i didnt realize you had an evo x, i know that when evo x peeps upgrade to a more aggressive clutch there's a chance for the clutch master cylinder failing so look out for that as well

Yea I wanna get the ACT HDSS street clutch and probably the street light fly wheel but do I have to worry about my clutch master?

Glad to see that people are using lightened flywheels. I thought I read somewhere not to use them for some odd reason. My cousin bought me one so I was trying to find the post.
