Hmmmm, the PO of my car installed a Cup Clutch, and I don't know what kind of pressure plate he used. The clutch pedal is much firmer than my friends stock clutch 951. Would the cup clutch alone account for the added firmness or would it have to be from an upgraded pressure plate?

Where can I find cup setup and does it provide additional clamping force on the pressure plate? And how much do tehy generally go for?
TIA

I have been running a stock friction disk between a Fidanza flywheel and the KEP pressure plate. Very happy with the setup.

I want to say when I called them it was close to 700 dollars. Might have been $640. Too bad, if it was half that, I probably would have bought one even though I dont need a clutch.

Paragon has the KEP plate, $600. I'd run the KEP plate, Fidanza flywheel, and Spec stage2 plate for my ideal setup. As a matter of fact, those're the parts I'm slowly putting together for myself.

PP - 600 Dollars
FW - 320 Dollars
Disk - 150 dollars

Paying more for your clutch than some people pay for their car....Priceless!
