Message I had Carbonetics twin disc clutch 1100kg put in recently, and after adjusting the pedal, I'm pretty happy with it.

1. cost: kit around $2k, comes with light flywheel
2. grip: non-slip even under heavy acceleration, wheels spin, etc
3. streetable? Yes, but..from dead stop stalls easily, have to add some gas pedal you normally would not
4. other: noise when at idle and pedal down
5. feel: very light, almost as light as my 1984 turbo z.
6. two types: 1100kg (mine) and 1300kg for heavier grip
7. installation: routine, nothing special, according to mechanic
8. gotchas: not so far, but only a few hundred miles on it
9. replaced: RPS Street MAX with alum flywheel. this was a smoother clutch from dead stop. harder to get the pedal adjustment right, heavier feel to it. Still a very good clutch, I wanted a long-lasting or permanent clutch.
10. break-in: does not appear to need any
