Competition Clutch DSM Twin Disc Review

blackawdtsi · 10-10-2011

Hey guys, I want to share my experience with my new clutch setup. I wrote it in Word and exported it as a JPEG so it would be easier to update multiple forums as needed.

Thank for the write up. I think I'll be getting one of these in the spring, keep us updated!

Very good input! Keep up the good work and let us know of any negative feedback.

Good to hear. i just installed the stage 4 kit from comp after an act failure.
Anyone use the stage 4 kit? i havent got to drive it yet.

Everything I've heard about the comp stage 4 (ON DSM's ONLY) has been great. Brad and Kevin 1g drummer both ran it for quite a while with good results I know.

BOO! I hated that clutch! Material was missing after a few 100 miles. Make sure you use an OEM throw out bearing too. Should of did the ACT 2600/6 puck sprung.

Also this thread is about the twin disc clucth not the stage 4. You should keep this thread clean and not cluttered.

I apologize for getting off topic. If you don't mind me asking, what's wrong with the throwout provided? I used it :/.
I initially wanted the 2600 kit but didn't have the cash.
I was so bummed from my 2100 disk breaking, followed by the pressure plate that messed up my perfect trans, i wanted to try something else.

needtoinsert, don't worry about what Cornfed said. 6 pucks commonly have material break off in certain areas after only a little bit of driving. It's not like they completely fall apart. The clutch I replaced my twin disc with was an ACT2600 with a 6 puck sprung disc. Guess what, material missing after 400ish miles.

I LOVED my CC stage 4 clutch. It was cheap and held almost everything I could throw at it. It held around 500ftlb at db uncorrected after spraying it and then it slipped after going to go do a street pull. That was with a decent amount of miles on it and some runs down a track. If I could go back I'd would have never gotten a twin disc, kept the stage 4, and been happy running high 10s and having a reliable car instead of always going for more
