stock clutch disc vs act street disc??

i want to get my car running this weekend and i have a new act street disc laying around; my 6 puck nevered came in so i cancelled it. my power goal is 380wrhp; will the act disc be fine or should i wait for a better disc?? (this is with a stock pp)

I come from a land down under
Stokless: I used the ACT Street kit in my last build and it was fine! (The PP doesn't appear to be anything special my guess is a stock one with yellow paint)

The Disc will chatter slightly under certain conditions as it doesn't have Marcels but should hold your power goals.

I had a ACT street setup on my car for about a year. Unless somthing's changed. The Kit i had, the Pressure plate was heavy duty, the Disc was stock toyota disk. Is that still not the case?

Pioneer: To me it looked the other way round!

The PP diaphragm measured stock and the disc is quite a bit different with bonded linings with no Marcels.
(I bought mine 2 years ago so it could very well have changed)

i thought the act street kit came with a hd pp... my bro has the kit as well and the clutch feels different than mines with a stock pp.

i'm pretty sure the pp is upgrade, not to sure on the disc...

LamaRossa what turbo are you running?

Just went out and measured my ACT and a Stock PP to make sure!

Both have 2.8mm diaphragms so unless ACT have found a way of making the PP heavy duty that uses a stock diaphragm I stick by what I said.
(I built Clutches for a living for a year when I was a kid way back)

my ACT clutch had a heavier pressure plate and a stock toyota disc. I've been looking into clutches for a little bit and here's what I've found

ACT
Heavy duty Pressure plate, stock Disc

Spec
Stage II Stock Pressure plate, aftermarket disc
Stage III Stock pressure plate, 6puck sprung

RPS
Heavy duty pressure plate, Heavy duty disc
