Expectations were definitely exceeded. the cut weight from the new RV6 flywheel is what was needed to turn the car from boring, unpredictable, and lazy shifts when you really started getting into hard turns /downshifting into a predictable, precise and more of that raw honda shifting that we all know and love. The clutch is fantastic, no drag rumble when pulling away even from steep hills, the bite point isn't too dramatic or too sluggish, it hits the perfect middle ground and it would be hard to beat the results given. Its everything i expected from a clutch you can daily, go on a spirited drive, and thrash when you feel like driving it you stole it. From digs to rolls it doesn't disappoint. Paired with the Stainless braided line and upgraded CMC to prevent lockouts when running out gears, its a perfect combination. 10/10 would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Just had this installed on my car and I love it! Pedal feel ot great and it grabs like crazy! Would definitely purchase again. Thanks again Humza for the recommendation
2024 Civic Si (stage 0 - included SS clutch line) - I started hitting a wall on performance gains as the stock clutch was slipping at the higher power levels, I also wasn't too crazy about how spongy and vague the clutch felt when driving around normally. It just seemed to take forever to fully engage and wasn't as consistent as I'd have liked.
This thing though, holy crap. The difference was immediately noticeable. It grabs right away and fully engages very quickly, and it's consistent. Starting in 1st is way, way smoother, and 1st to 2nd is butter. I was shocked at how much of an improvement this is, so much so that I think Honda made a mistake not putting in the same clutch as the Type R right from the factory.
Whether you need this so you can push the power further or not, it's an essential upgrade, regardless of your plans for performance mods, if you do any at all. Seriously, it's just that good.
Got this as a repair/upgrade for my 2020 Civic, got the job done ourselves, which I would only recommend to those with a good space to work in and at least one person around who knows what they're doing. New clutch feels absolutely amazing, very bitty and confidence inspiring and the lighter flywheel just further enhances the effects of a flash, engine is way more responsive, the car is less juddery at slow speeds and the clutch pedal doesn't feel that much harder (at least to me) so it won't be torture when stuck in Montreal traffic.
Would recommend.
