XTD 6 puck here. So far so good at about 2k miles on it with stock boost. Clutch pedal feel is a little stiffer than stock which is a good thing. As described so far.

don't wase your money on a f1 clutch. one of my friend had a f1 clutch on his RX-7 FC and it worked good for a couple of weeks then it started to slip, the car was never raced only driven as a daily driver. also bad customer support.

I just put one in my S13 stock for now. I swapped out the pressure plate for a ACT one I had laying around, the XTD use to use the Exedy pressure plate but not anymore.

XTD clutches are a joke. I had their "Stage 2" clutch in my car and after about 6k miles it would slip at WOT. BTW, the clutch pedal is adjusted perfectly, new slave cylinder, new master cylinder, and removed damper box.

I would definately stay away from them.

i have 2 friends that are pushing around 250 hp both on their sr's. they have drifted and clutch kicked the crap outta them and they say they're holding up pretty well. well i'll see. i just want a stiffer clutch pedal feel. mine feels soft and i was told is that the pp is going out.

I wouldn't blame it totally on the clutches going out on you guys...you should look at the clutch install as well. Perhaps it was a bad installation. We've heard good and bad things for everything even from no name brands to name brand clutches. Best thing to do is try it...I did and I'm satisfied so far.
