Product Description

Experience the ultimate in performance with the Maxx Xtreme/Race Sprung kit from ACT. Engineered for passionate enthusiasts, this kit boasts a MaXX pressure plate designed to elevate your driving experience. ACT’s MaXX pressure plates are crafted with an exclusive diaphragm design, boosting clamp load and extending clutch lifespan by minimizing deflection. Through a rigorous four-stage heat-treating process, ACT’s diaphragms deliver unmatched durability. Precision cover stampings ensure consistent performance and rigidity. ACT’s 4 or 5 pad spring-centered race disc, engineered with spring-center construction, effectively dampens torsional vibrations for quieter operation and enhanced resilience, even in challenging conditions. ACT’s spring retainers feature wraparound spring windows and thicker retainer stampings, offering robust spring support, reducing stress concentrations, and enhancing reliability. While engagement may be more aggressive with the 4 or 5 pad spring-centered race disc, shifting becomes lightning-fast. This disc is particularly well-suited for smaller engines and disc sizes, delivering optimal performance every time. Elevate your driving experience with ACT’s Maxx Xtreme/Race Sprung kit.
