Clutch?
Hey, first post here, and just wondering what clutch I should use for a goal of 500whp. A friend of mine with a 600+whp C4 uses a Kennedy clutch, however the pressure plate is such a high rate that you need to brace your knee on the steering wheel to properly launch the thing. Otherwise you just stall out. I am use to heavy clutches, anything from a 2600-2900 ACT. However, I don't want my car to be a PITA to drive around on the street, and continually stalling it. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Since this is my first post, I will also attach a pic of my car. Hope you all like it. 1

Welcome to the board! Damn sexy car you got there, give us some more details
![]() Look up member Juan Ruiz, he's on his way out of the Porsche world right now, but he can definitely tell you what's up w/ high horsepower cars where "launch" is a concern. I'll post your car pic in the message as it will surely drum up some more interest in this thread ![]() ![]()

Thanks a lot Brandon, I didn't know if it would automatically resize the picture if I posted. Well, the car has an RSR widebody on it, paint and body work was done by Legendary Motor Car (Dream Car Garage on Speed Channel), has a 6 point rollcage, 5 point harnesses, gutted, 19x13 and 19x10 K29's wrapped in 355/25 Pirelli's and 285/30 Bridgestones, straight pipe, euro motor, longneck IC, and a 1 bar spring. I have a T61 sitting in my garage that was destined for a DSM, along with an HKS racegate, as well as switching to EFI. Also has Avo shocks, polyurethane bushings, etc. I also have some RA1's sitting around for the track, going to get a set of 18" K29's in flat black for them. Hopefully she is a potent little track car for Solo 1.
