Wich clutch?
Hey guys, now I need new clutch for my 944S2...
I'm wondering about wich type I should get... For the first, the plan is to pump um the power in this car very soon so I want a clutch that can easily handle extra 100hp.
I just installed stage 2 SPEC clutch for my friend in his car. I really don't like the vibration in it when it's connecting
What would you recoment? I want it to be as smooth as possible

Anytime your disc has a higher coefficient of friction the grabbier it will be. Was your friend SPEC a 2 or 2+?
I would reccommend these guys: http://www.dxdracingclutches.com/944.html
I run their Feramic (both sides of disc) full faced disc (OFE) with a KEP1 pressure plate in a 240mm config.

Andy was terrific to deal with: andy@dxdracingclutches.com
You could try a Feramic on one side of the disc (flywheel side) and a medium metal/organic compound of the pressure plate side. It will have less torque capabilities than full Feramic but be an easier and less chatter when engaging from a stop.
You may want to contact Markus Blaszak (Canada). He does custom clutches and modifies stock pressure plates for increased clamp force (but this yields less pedal travel and there for modulation).
Jason at Paragon Products could also steer you in the right direction and is awesome to talk with!
BTW: what mods are you considering to gain that extra 100hp? I used to have a S2 with a Stahl 4-1 race header, no cat, and ECU chip and while it was stronger especially in the upper rpms and pulled real fast to redline I know it was no 100hp gain.
