Ultimate 16v Clutch Kit

[mardak at cogeco.ca (Mark)]

Sean (remember him from Track Day North/past Cincy meets) is using a
Stage 1 Bully clutch and pressure plate combo.  It's a Canadian brand
made by Ottawa Clutch.  Anyways, he's very happy with it.  The pressure
plate is strapless, but one side of the clutch disc is organic, so it's
not a totally "hardcore" race setup.  It's very grabby, but still
streetable.  It was about $100 cheaper than the Centreforce IIRC.
