the clutch you should get is the southbend OFE disk with the SS pressure plate definetly worth the money its a little stiff but I love it

You'll want to get a new clutch too.
You see ,I have a lot of mods to do .. I spend a lot for the BBS's and the wheels last month so I am thinking to buy the ATP manifold and the clutch after installing the elim.kit

There is another question in my mind 'which clutch' should I buy and what stage '3 or 4' ?

Forget about 1/4 mile, if you have stock clutch.

I have Southbend OFE SS stage 4. I even have problems sometimes. I slipped it couple of times.

If you want to keep your stock clutch for a while, only race you can do on highways. Dont plan to lanch from full stop. I guarantee you'll slip it in 1st and 2nd gear for sure.

Ones you slip, it takes about a week to heal.

however i did pull up next to a kia rio hatchback with chrome hubcaps, huge exhaust, a ginormous wing and a five inch monster tach and shift light (it was a manual shift auto anyhow i pulled up next to him and axed him to race but he just looked scared and rolled up his window haha, i wouldnt have wasted the gas anyway
dude, are you kidding? those chrome hubbies gave him - 20lbs; 'ginormous wing' gave him 30hp; monster tach made his engine rev free; that shift light made his car as good as manual!!!! And yea, you would've wasted gas getting smoked by a kia!!! LOL





uhh... this probably isn't necessary, but I'm being sarcastic..... [:'(]

I beat a ralliart lancer last night with at least exhaust (162hp, 162ft/lbs stock). He blamed it on his uphill launch, even though he's the one to challenge me.
thats funny ****... these cars just arent that fast off the line but will get it on the highway...
