I have been using a 6 puck,,on the 2.2 I had a stage 2 pp but now with the 3.3 I am using a stage 4 also with 6 puck. I like it. Some folks talk of chatter but mine are smooth as stock.
There are 2 stage 3 pp on ebay,,,I think stage 3 might be the ticket

Stage 4 and a 6 puck here, too. No chattering at all, but I have heard others say theirs did.

My disc came off of Rhonda's buggy, she ran it for a couple rides and didnt like it because it chattered. I think it had a stage 2 pressure plate on it then. My motor was off my buggy at the time, so we just traded for my kush lok. Other than gearing and p.plate, our buggies are very similiar, but it chattered in hers and not at all in mine. Dont really make sense.

Maybe they work better with a heavier p.plate??

on the flywheel side, the clutch disc stuck to the flywheel and came out in pieces. on the pressure plate side it was dust.

The chattering that everybody is talking about is caused by (I think) if you are running a slave cylinder (hydraulic) and if it is set too tight, it will cause it to chatter, mine used to do that until I got the cylinder adjusted and it went away, and all I am running is a 4-puck and a stage 1 pp, never slipped once on me and am running a 2276cc, and still running the same clutch and pp for almost 3 years now :mrgreen: My first buggy had a kushlok clutch and stock pp and it chatters when I got it and found that it was set too tight and then adjusted it a little loose and it went away.
