Twin disc setup

[generationjdm]

Who has any experience on the S4 with running a twin disc, post any info you may have and the pros and cons of each twin disc setup

[Cobrakiller08]

I am getting ready to buy one. i know that the twin disk from asp is going to be on and off style because of the diskes are have sold hubs and no springs and they are ceramic. i know from experiance with all the other clutches i have had. i just know that it is the only way to go for big turbos and alot of clutch cycles. they can handle alot of heat, the hotter they get the harder they bite. plus i trust tilton alot. what is your thoughts on it.

I had the tilton a while back and the car really wasn't drivable at all on the street.. This was on a honda though

[Cobrakiller08]

I have had one side kevalre and one side cermaic on my ko4 s4 with 75 hp juice and it kicked the kevalre sides butt. that is why i am going to the twin disk with cermaic. btw your manifolds are the goods! You are a True Craftsman. how bad was the honda

[generationjdm]

The honda was crazy a little over 500whp on 93 octane at 22lbs

[Cobrakiller08]

Wow bad boy honda! was the twin disk on and off ? either ingaged or disingaged?

[generationjdm]

Ya the thing was like a switch, there was no way to ease out the clutch... That was 8-9 years ago when i did that

[Cobrakiller08]

I spoke to JP from vag on the phone the other day, and he said that he liked his clutch masters ceramic twin. He said that he has had some problems with the kevalar holding up with the big turbo set up.

Spec makes a twin disc in 3-4 different configs

[Cobrakiller08]

what is there price range? do you know?

[jibberjive]

Yeah, you guys want to post prices for the ones that you are thinking about? I looked for a sec at the clutchmasters and it was like $1800-1900 IIRC

[generationjdm]

Retail for cm was like 2400 retail for spec was 2000.00

I should know in 2 weeks, i have the tilton setup. Shaun we got the other downpipe tacked up today, but it was too damn hot here to continue. He is going to weld it up for me this week, and ill go back to button everything else up.

I have now custom made flywheel and AP-Racing twin disc sintered clutch, 950 Nm. Price was ~2600$.

This has integrated pulse teeths, not like in the Clutchmasters or others. Those will definitely stay there, I have heard that the pulse ring might sometimes take off. It is also made from steel, that should help in chattering, and it is also stronger than aluminium.

Not installed yet, so I can't tell how does it feel.

Did check to see if the dps extra 02 sensor i put in is in the right spot now since the dps have been modified? If not cap it off and have him do another one for you.. Hope to see it up and running soon, as for mine I finally started playing with the motor, hopefully have it back together in 7-10 days.

On the drivers side it's pretty close to the tranny, but ill make it work.

Spec from atlanta?

let me know if you run this setup, i have a Spec setup on my integra (stg5/lwfw) and i love it. I didnt know how it would be on a S4, not that I need a new clutch setup yet.
