Mcleod RXT vs Vengeance stage 2

[djcodeman]

Since I bought my mustang from a 6g member 2years ago, I've been all in.
I've been doing all my own work. So far it's been cradle lockouts, vertical links, short shifter, many wheel and tire setups, thermostat, injectors, pulley, tune, etc...
I finally destroyed my mcleod RST clutch.. so this is a video looking at the RXT vs Vengeance stage 2.. recommended by beefcake

Beefcake is who I always go to when I need parts as well! Those folks are the best to deal with!

Thanks for posting the video comparison. How did the two compare in pedal feel?

I'm only 50 miles in on the break in... but the pedal definitely started off harsh, high grabbing, and has settled down quite a bit. I'd say the Vengeance stage 2 pedal feels the same as the RST.... I never installed the RXT, buts its the same hardware as the RST just different clutch discs.

Going from the RST organic friction discs to the vengeance cerametallic makes smooth take offs more difficult, so I'm still adjusting.

I agree that the take offs with cerametallic clutch disc material are more difficult. I haven’t stalled mine yet, but have come close several times. If it helps transfer the power much better than factory (which it should), then it’s a trade off that is well worth it IMO.

Based on my research, the RST seems better for lower power levels like the canned whipple stage 1 tune to not destroy the stock mt82 transmission am I right? drawback is can't handle extensive heat?

I'm on the stock mt 82. I burned up my rst with too many launches.

For a daily driver, no racing, no launches I'm assuming it'd be good?
