the CA uses low impedence injectors (~2.2ohm iirc).

I've got a Stage III SPEC clutch. It's fine. The pedal feel is VERY light and the engagement point is kinda high up in the pedal travel. Otherwise the clutch holds very well.

The stock CA injectors are low impedence, hence the need for a resistor pack.

Hey thanx guys. Yeah i was looking at Spec stage 2. I was also looking at getting a Act clutch but when i call there to talk to them theyre not open. and they dont have any engine codes or anything to tell you what clutch you do need. Its kinda a payne in the ***. How much torque and hp do you have in your car? And what kind of boost are you running?
