I fitted an AP organic to my road/competition Sti V3 3 years ago.
Engine once RR'd @ 407 x 360 lbft (it is the torque that matters here)

It is still perfect, smooth as stock, no slipping and as light to use as stock.

pretty sure they are "re-built" and not new units..................................

not sure of the quality, but don't seem that exciting from the feedback i've had of a couple of customers

I got a similar one from a clutch specialist on ebay, Stage 1 rated to 280bhp.
Cost £165
Fitted 2 weeks ago and seems very good.

Speak to David at API and go for an Exedy uprated Organic. Job done. David said he wouldn't have probs with any warranty claims up to 400bhp/lbs ft on these - so more than adequate for yor needs!! I've got one on mine, better than the OEM in trafic and NO judder....ever!!
