What's the clamping force of the RS4 clutch? How about SPEC Stg 1? Other differences?
Please share any info you have on these two clutches and how they compare.
Thanks!

well....
Jason told me that the SPEC Stage II clutch is 300psi more than the RS4 clutch. I don't know anything about the stage I clutch.
I've had the SPEC stage II for approx. 1,000 miles now and it feels great. I can't compare it to the feel of the RS4, but it feels very similarly to the OEM S4 clutch in day to day driving, but when you let it go it grabs really really well. I'm happy with it so far.

street/strip unit for drag launches.
Stg4/5 are for race cars."</i>

call SPE Clutches
I just ordered a SPEC 2 directly from company.
For those of you with power upgrades and thinking about a new clutch, I would highly recommend giving them a call - very helpful.
In a few weeks I will post some feedback about the SPEC level 2.

Re: well....
yeah, SPEC's website says 365wtq for the stage I but doesn't say how many psi clamping force. All I know is that Jason told me 300 more psi than the RS4 for the stage II... *shrug*. If you're going for more power, the stage II seems like the way to go... love mine so far.
