Default Best clutch for 750whp

I will soon be at the 750whp range and I currently have the South Bend Stage 3 clutch installed and got thinking that I would be getting close to its rated limit of 660tq and what I am wanting to know is what would be a good clutch to get that would be good for road racing, the occasional drag race, and be the quietest? Thanks for your inputs!

Glad you didn't include price in your criteria. Here's the one I use, and it fits your list perfectly:

In addition, any twin disk clutch in this list should be workable:

What did you think of the prices of the dual-plate clutches in the second link I posted?

Yeah those are better. What about if I got these 2?

RPS Cyn-R-G Segmented Flywheel for 1993-98 Supra TT

RPS Stage 3 Clutch with Sprung Hub for 1993-98 Supra Twin Turbo

How does that sound? Or is there something better to do?

I'm pretty sure that clutch is NOT dual disk. You have to find a dual-disk clutch from that list.

I know it's not a dual but would this be a good setup regardless? What would be the real benefit with going with a dual setup?

You wanted something significantly better than a South Bend Stage 3, right? You need a dual-disk.

Im just looking for a clutch that will be able to hold the 750whp im shooting for so im trying to find a clutch thats not super expensive that will hold the power im going to make. With the shot of nitrous that im planning to shoot (100 shot) will i need to get a clutch that can handle 850whp or does that not factor into clutch strength?

You need a dual-disk clutch. You won't be happy with the longevity/durability or driveabilty of anything else. Bite the bullet, save the money. It'll be worth it.
