Mantic Series 9000 Twin Disk Cerametallic Clutch Install

If you want to save your current transmission it is worth every penny.
I would think a 2k clutch is cheaper than a new transmission. An RST clutch would work well too, if the 2K is steep and I agree it is a lot of money. But, you do get what you pay for.

Will this chatter like the rst?

I didn't think the RST did chatter?
I'm pretty sure the Mantic will not chatter. VMP uses this clutch in some of their builds.

My RST nor my RXT had chatter.

Wonder what the hp rating is on this?

So in your opinion or experience this is twice as good as the RST?

Yep, that's the question. And... what is "twice as good" - ya know?

Quality & construction

What's not quality about a McLeod? Just don't know enough about either to know.

all these guys praising the Mantic but no one giving reviews... seems odd.
If i spent 2k on a part you better believe id let ya know how it was

McLeod has a better clutch than the RXT, can get it 1,2 or 3 disc and rated at 1,2 and 3,000hp. Little over 3k for the twin disc.

Zero Issues. Fully broken in and two track days at Sebring and The FIRM in Starke, FL. The hotter the clutch gets, the harder it sticks and its a great thing to feel. Once you get used to the light feel of the clutch and get back into a stock clutch car, you really notice the difference

Bumping this back up, hows the clutch living?

His car got totaled.

So a quick review of mine. It has been in since last November. It's the cerametalic version. Slips easier than stock. I can drive up my inclined driveway without any throttle input. No chatter on startup or idle, no chatter while driving with the exception of bogging the motor a little bit. While teaching my wife to drive my car I noticed a few time she didn't down shift when she slowed for a turn or something, if you give any throttle lower than say 1200rpm in a gear that's too high there will be some floater plate rattle. Stops as soon as you're beyond 1500rpm. If you're an experienced driver, as am sure you all are, you will never hear this clutch.

Thanks for the info, sorry about the other guys car, that sucks

Didn't think this would be in stock but within an hour got tracking from VMP and it comes Thursday!

I know itll give me all the info in the box when it comes, but whats the recommended break in for the clutch?
