Message In short...there is none. I recently had to pull my trans (replace I and insert Specialty Z), so while the car was apart, Greg was talking about how much better the 5 puck was versus the 6 puck.... So... I opted for the 5 puck and had the clutch swapped out. And wow, that is all I can say. My car literally had one of the first 6 puck clutches in it, and I had gotten used to it (about ~6-7 years of 6 puck clutches). The 5 puck feels very near stock (not as soft as my wife's 240), but very much how I remember the stock Z clutch being. On top of a better feel, Greg says the clutch is capable of holding about 200hp more.

I won't go into too much specifics between the 6 puck and the 5 puck, but basically there is greatly reduced weight of the clutch...and the actual pressure plate is much more custom.

Needless to say, I am impressed. Maybe I am just getting old, but the lighter feel def. makes the car more fun to drive more.

Thanks for the great service and products Greg and Seb.

Chris.
