i have a DXD in my car, been about two years now, i believe i was the 1st tibby to run it actually. truthfully i couldnt be happier with it in the tibby, and recommened it above all others for the price, and quality.

course ive been using the southbend clutch's in my mazda's for years.

and that basic dxd, i have ran a 13.6@104mph in my gray probe turbo without issues, and my friend ran a 12.6 in his KL swapped mx3 with his dxd. ive known tons of people to run them, and there has yet to be any problems.

its very close to stock in feel, nothing thats gonna be a hassle at all

my mod's are few.

dxd clutch, fidanza aluminum flywheel, intake, exhaust. thats it, but i still run mid 15's smile.gif

i have a full turbo kit ready to go once i get off my ass, and have zero worries that my clutch wont handle it, as said, ive allready pushed these clutch's alot more then you or me will probably ever in our tiburon's.

call southbend directly, actually talk to them on the phone if your worried, they will walk you though what you have planned, and give you the best clutch for your personal set up. they can even custom make clutch's to what you want with various materials and such

you can check out there website

http://www.dxdracingclutches.com/home.html

i got the rally one just installed with a 11lb XTD flywheel

very noticeable difference

both the TZ and Rally kit state they come with a TOB and clutch alignment tool, they dont mention anything for there stronger clutches so you might want to confirm with them if you go with something different

Daoust,
in your case i would use the ACT,very nice street clutch and can handle around 10-12 psi of boost
acts almost like a stock clutch
