ACT2100 Clutch and a Fidanza Flywhel. I have that combo on my Eclipse with 300hp and it bites hard. However, the stock flywheel bolts are a little short and you will need to get new longer ones. This is because the Fidanza flywheel is made from aluminum and because its not as strong it has to be thicker to compensate for it. So thats why. Many people just use the stock bolts anyway. I have never heard about any of them every comeing off but when i saw how far the bolts go in i was like... no way am i doing that. So i just got longer bolts.

id agree except go for a 2600, no reason to get a 2100 they are the same price and the 2600 is not heavy

You would only need the 2600 if you plan on doing decent mods and you want the extra bite. I dont think she has a heavily modded car so why the 2600? The 2100 is much easier to get used to.

what is this bite you are talking about? my 2600 is as light and as smooth to drive as a stock clutch. 2100's are the same price and they are weaker. sure you dont need a 2600 if you are only making mild power, but why get something worse when there isnt any downside or getting a 2600. if you ever make more power you will have a clutch that can support it. besides if you ever decide to go to a track, the 2100 is going to heat up just as bad as a stock clutch and take a dump on you
