If that's the twin 8.5 ceramic I have... you'll love it. I dumped the clutch 12 times on the way home tonight. Yes, I counted.

Be patient learning to drive it at first. It can be frustrating, and it will teach you just how bad you are at match-rev downshifting. You will soon learn to drive it, it will break in, and nobody will know it's an unsprung, highly aggressive race clutch.

It's loud, it's hard to drive, your friends think your ****ty at driving stick, and I love mine. That's because when u dump it hold on to your butthole, u might dump yourself when u can finally get the power to the wheels.
