Unsure if this is maybe the installation issue, that and everybody who wasn't used to the car pretty much stalled it because it grabbed fast. The clutch pedal was not as stiff as stock, which I found supprising.
Once you get used to it tho, very daily drivable, and when you drive agressivly it grips like no other.
Personally when the clutch in my car fails I'll probably go Spec Stage 3 again.
The experience I had with my Spec stage 2 sounds exactly how Kevin describes above - mind you I was only pushing 200 hp and 180tq but that clutch, combined with the LSD made life on the track very, very, very entertaining.
