I fell like all i did in this video is say a whole lot of nothing. Hopefully you find some value out of it. Also, am i say "Exedy" wrong?

What I love are channels that show a cars individual character. This video was awesome! I’m a former DSM owner, an Evo lover and a long time subscriber. More more more 🤘🏼

I have the Exedy Twin in my EVO and the first 3 months I was surprised by the clutch chatter when I was at a stop light with cars on each side. The clutch is much quieter now and I have gotten used to it. The only thing I need to get better at is making sure I don’t change gears until the clutch is fully engaged. The Exedy Twin is a great clutch.

Awesome review Bro. Good to see some feed back on the new ACT Twin. Thank you for taking the time to put this review/user feedback together.

Please keep the videos coming, been learning a lot from your videos after buying my evo 8!

[WTFNoNamesLeft]

I had an Exedy twin in my EVO for about 8 years before I sold the car. The car only made probably 330 wheel. The chatter is very minimal and eventually went away but it did take a long time to smooth out. Thousands and thousands of miles.A friend helped me move and had to move the car. He didn't have a ton of manual experience but he remarked that it was much easier to drive than he expected. I can't say enough good stuff about the Exedy. I also "Trained" myself in the same way you talked about. I do the same thing in my FRS and my new EVO with a single but as soon as it's time to replace the "New" VIII clutch I'm going back with the Exedy just because it's a known solution and it's an expensive experiment. Also pulling an EVO transmission is such a PITA.

I have an act sigle disc full face in my evo 8 and this video helped me choose my next upgrade act twin disc thanks bro I'm always aware of your content

[Vtecyo]

I luv my Exedy Twin, the only time I get lockout is going through a bend or a roundabout. Awesome review!!!

[darrentopham]

Thanks for the awesome content. Currently running a comp clutch twin disc in my E6. tonnes of bite but its a very harsh clutch. Very heavy pedal feel, so much so my clutch pedal squeak's now. The clutch Howls quite a bit when its engaging with the fly wheel. Also quite a bit of judder

[VxOfame]

Really informative video. Thank you sir

[shawneng]

Great video giving real life driving experience on both. I would like to know if you Exedy Twin is it SD or SDF type?

[echen]

Thanks for the insights Paul; I'm currently on the ACT HDSS single/street/sprung - JW if you have had any experience with that one and how it compares - noted your comment on even @ stock power you would take a twin vs single and was hoping you might be able to expand on that a bit. I haven't had great success with launches on the HDSS and may be looking for an upgrade/replacement in the future on a DD pump gas/stock turbo evo 9 for context. Thanks bro - appreciate the vids either way, you are the man!

I have on my Evo 8 stage 1 exedy with act streetlite flywheel I love this combo handles 350 tq like it was meant for it Drives very close to stock

[killaevo]

I've had both exedy twin and triple disc, the triple felt more like stock it's really light but had lots of chatter when you press the clutch in also have a dog box too lol exedy twin is hard to press in and also the travel is long, also yes the act is like stock too I would buy the twin but I'd get triple exedy myself for more power hope this helps anyone!

[jethrox]

I read all the forums for twin disc reviews, I found issues with older exedy twin discs, so I looked elsewhere, the ACT isn't really available over here in Au so I found a place that sold ORC 659s which I installed myself and never looked back, no chatter, stock feel, rattles a bit but built evo therefore don't care, gives it character

[ChristianSanchez-]

Well I just found out the shatter noise on my evo is completely normal, it had me worried for the longest

[mattpuryear]

Thank you for this video .
I had a exedy twin in my 03 evo 8 and had TERRIBLE decel noises along with the loud rattle at idel . I actually did not hear any if all decel noises with either clutch . Do you get any decel noises and is the ACT quieter in your opinion?

[faz]

Nice review, very helpful. What's the power output for both these cars. Was a Exedy OEM stock clutch no good?

[landonviars]

I went from a single 6 puck ACT to an exedy triple and it felt like stock compared to the 6 puck lol.

[eliseocortes]

from crank walk to twin disc clutch is like 😮

[AWD_T]

I’m curious how many miles you get out of the twin. Can you update us when it needs to be replaced?
