I would go with a twin disc or even a triple. An exedy twin disc is great for daily driving and track use. I know Quartermaster is a good choice also but engagement is a little on the harsh side and it will last approximately 20,000 miles depending on your driving style. Quartermaster also came out with their new and improved "street" clutch so you might want to look into that.

I agree, I think you'll max the 880cc with your setup. If your shooting for 600+ there are some more aggressive cams you could be running. I was aiming for max 550whp when I purchased my Exedy Twin. I think you would need a Triple.

Exedy Triple.
Check out the deals of Exedy Triple Clutch Kits STM offers.

Your set up looks pretty solid. I see you have a double pumper, but larger injectors will be needed for your power goals. Larger cam duration would also benefit you in obtaining your power goals. At least get a 280/280 combination or check out the newly released cams designed by STM & Buschur which are specifically for cars looking to obtain 650+ hp.

everyone still recommending the exedy.

Take my advise, forget the exedy and get an ATS (Carbonetics) Triple. You can thank me later

Are you planning on running pump/meth or e85 etc?

i would go with fic 2150ss with your setup and dont look back... or if those are too much, go with pte 1600s... brand doesnt mean anything really.. but they are easier to tune from what ive seen...

280 duration cams or anything aggressive like that helps the engine breathe... think of it that way

Thanks buddy, I’m going to un 2 setup one with the aquamist on and the second one daily drive with aquamist off, but I’m located in Lima Peru and here the gasoline is not as good like in USA even with the 98oct, next months is coming a tuner from Florida to tune some cars include mine and i just want to make sure i have everything ready for him to try to get around 650-700whp.

Thanks a lot

I know there are a lot of folks going with triple Exedy's with that power requirement, but you really should take a look at the ATS/Carbonetic twin and triple. For street and drag it's probably the best out there. I have been running mine for over 18K miles and still have life left in it.

No problem man... you should also look into a double pumper. It would suck if your getting a tune and the single pump cant feed more fuel when needed

Those three things and you should be set. 600+ shouldnt be out of the pic at all
