so thats what you should be looking at, there is the exedy priced at around 1200 quid plus vat, thats good for 600lb ft, and you rate clutches at lb ft not bhp

As above, running a 6 puck ACT clutch. very user friendly and rated to 450lbft
You can get them dirt cheap from gripforceclutches on ebay.com (not uk version as they are located in the states)

If your not bothered about priced I have just pulled an ACT clutch out which was rated to 730lbs and coped with my power and launches. I'm replacing it with a Carbonetics tripple plate clutch as I'm going for more power and want to be safe. This is the clutch that runs in andyf's race car so if you want a quality clutch and don't care about price
