If you're looking to upgrade your clutch setup, the ACT TC2-HDSS kit is worth your attention. This isn’t just any clutch kit; it combines the best of both worlds with a Heavy Duty pressure plate and a solid street disc. I've had my fair share of clutches, and let me tell you, the ACT Heavy Duty pressure plate stands out. It features a unique diaphragm design that ramps up the clamp load, minimizes deflection, and ultimately extends the life of your clutch. Plus, each diaphragm goes through a rigorous four-stage heat-treating process, ensuring you get top-notch performance when you need it most.

The pressure plate itself is built for reliability, with precision cover stampings that add rigidity and consistency. You can really feel the difference when you’re out on the road or hitting the track. Now, let’s talk about the Performance Street disc. It’s made from premium organic materials that have a high copper content, which helps with heat transfer—an essential feature if you push your ride hard. The steel-backed lining offers burst strength and durability, while the reduced marcel allows for quicker shifts, making it a perfect match for the ACT pressure plates.
