Hi perf Clutch
I have a feeling I'm about to need a new clutch!!! Its not doing anything its not supposed to be, but I can't see it lasting too much longer doing the kinda driving im doing. I had a Mcleod triple disc clutch in my Camaro, and that was hands down an awesome clutch, what is everyones opinions and past experiences on clutches for the 99-04 GT. I'm pretty much wanting a clutch that can handle anything I throw at it.

How much power are you putting through it?

Call me crazy, but leave the clutch alone until it goes unless you are dumping tons of extra power. Even with hard use, you should get thousands miles from it. I have 44k on my '00 and it still feels fine. Hoping to get 20k more from it.
I know this was not what you were looking for...sorry.

I don't know why you would want a more aggressive clutch if the stock one, or a stock replacement like a centerforce dual friction, isn't slipping. The high end clutches needed for high power cars (ie 800rwhp) act more like an on/off switch and are not very fun to drive.
