I've never understood the fascination that people have with 6-pucks. The reason to have a 6-puck is to increase the pressure per surface area on the pad, having a sprung 6-puck is counterintuitive to me (I'm no engineer, I just play one in my garage). The reason you want higher pressure per surface are is to get a quick grip for precise power delivery such as required in competition settings. when you put springs on a 6-puck you're taking away the advantage of the increased force because you're softening the momentum delivery. If you want a clutch for the street there are plenty of full face disks that are much smoother, longer lasting, and usually not as twitchy. If your car was in the 800s then a sprung 6-puck (of that fitting caliber) may be appropriate but at your power levels you can get all the performance you could ever want with compliance required of a street car from a full face disk. That's just my 2 cents.
