    I'm shopping for a new clutch, plate and flywheel for the Turbo LAGacy, and i wonder if this company is any good.


    Any opinions?

    When I was shoping for my ACT I saw that brand on ebay. I say do not do it. I love the ACT I put in my car.

    Thanks.. I've heard good things about ACT.

    The nice thing is that since I'm replacing the flywheel with a lightweight one I can go with a WRX setup on the 91 Legacy turbo.

    For this car and this transmission, I'm going to go ahead and go with an ACT lightweight flywheel ( 13.9 lbs ), I'm still uncertain as to the make and stage of clutch and pressure plate to put in, but I know I need for it to be sprung, and for it to fit a 2002-2005 WRX.

    When I build out the engine I expect to be using a 5 speed of some sort, and the heads, EM, and turbo will be upgraded for starters, so I want something streetable but beefy enough to handle much more power than the 160 or so flywheel HP the car is currently putting out.
