IMHO, your $160 clutch may be holding up because your pushing 301rwhp on it. once you get into the 400hp range, you might be in the same boat as lethal. The CF DF is a friendly street clutch and your while modding your way up to the 400 mark you won't have to worry.

Improper installation is def a factor as well as improper breakin. And i hate to say it but there are some lemons out there, no matter what the product or company. And FWIW, I've heard good things about Spec clutches.
