Cool Centerforce clutch kit feedback?

I had no joy finding any info on the NA 993 forum.
Is anybody here using a dual friction centerforce clutch?
How is the pedal feel? Would I go nuts in the LA traffic?
My car is a weekend/fun driver.

Thank you,

I don't know about centerforce clutches but if you have an NA 993 that you only use for the weekend then get an sach oem one and call it a day. Esp if you are concerned about pedal feel

Get the proper Sachs pieces. The Centerforce, et al is a waste in these cars.

My clutch is starting to slip and I wanted to have a good base setup to handle more power. Just in case I decide to install a supercharger in a few years.
A friend of mine with a highly modified 87 turbo told me to get one of these. I honestly have no experience with Sachs or Centerforce whatsoever. The centerforce kit isn't really that expensive. That's why I was considering it.

BTW: What do you guys use in 993TTs? Is it the same Sachs clutch kit as for the NAs?

The 993TT use a power assisted clutch... it takes away a bit of the "feel" of the NA setup, but its almost effortless. It also enables the use of really high clamping pressures with little change in pedal effort. Not having the power assist is one of the complications when adding lots of power to an NA car.

Still do. Have many of the Sachs pieces in everything from 800+hp TTs to Cupcars. They work great....
