Default Oooh, I just don't know. The clutch prices are absurd btw, but since ALL the prices

are absurd we need to figure out the best choice. I've driven neither. It seems the RS4 clutch is hit or miss, some people have great ones others not so great. Corey and Sharon are slipping theirs under power with race gas, so how much power are you planning on throwing down?

For a 2+ car with no big powa asperations, go the cheaper but effective route. Giving K04s the finger, get the AWE clutch (or Spec, hell I dunno).

I would rather get Spec3, which is the same price as Spec2 on their site.

Is it? Call Jason@ND, he seems to be the "good price" guy for Spec.
