Pretty close in weight. The Mfactory is the Organic Sprung Hub with about 2k miles on it.

I am still on stock turbos that are in good shape (minimal to no rattle), and I plan at being at 20 psi all day. If my turbos go, I will be either going single or pure stage 2. I like to beat on the car and I drive it hard for 50-60 miles a day. I went with the ceramic version, because I do not ever want to have to do a clutch again on this car. Do you guys think I am making a mistake and the organic would suit my needs? I don't really track this car but I don't want to have to worry about the occasional clutch dump, or if I do decide to do a few track days in the future.

I wasn't given to understand it was terribly expensive if doing the clutch anyway... Or is your engine actively on its way out. lol
Haha it adds up is what i was getting at, but yeah im very rough on my stuff, daily 27lbs on a 6466 and nls everywhere.

If you're getting yours rebalanced (or have already done so) and can offer recommendations on a machine shop, could you please PM me?

Ok, sorry for the delay guys. The warehouse just got back to me after checking with the freight company, and the ETA is the 22nd May (i.e tomorrow). Once the parts are checked in, I should be able to have all the clutches shipped out this week!

I'll email everyone tonight/tomorrow to reconfirm shipping details.

FYI - XClutch commented on my YouTube video about the clutch.

"Great video and thanks for putting this together to give people some further understanding of how the kits are to drive. We are the parent company of XClutch and just thought we would let you know that the metallic sound that you can hear when the clutch is pressed is actually the intermediate plate moving around rather than the throw out bearing . This is perfectly normal for this style of twin plate as the intermediate plate is floating, so no need to worry about that."

So if I'm reading this correctly, that means the metal TOB has nothing to do with the metallic whirring noise when the clutch is depressed.

Have not received any emails. I'm looking for a shipping update thanks.
