Good twin clutch for fi coupe

Okay, I have been searching and searching. My jwt single disk clutch only lasted around 10-14000 miles. Plus or minus. I just think I have a touch to much for another single disk. I want a clutch that will last a bit. I'm looking at the exedy twin, competition clutch twin and the clutch masters. I wold do the carbonetics but I don't feel like dropping the 2300 on it. I can get an exedy for 1200 . I just have not read or found anything on the. I know spec clutch's are no bueno on our platforms. I have a fully built motor pushing around 520-540 hp with 520-560 tq. Any help would be great. O and I rarely track the car mostly dd it. Thanks.

Exedy makes a good twin and I have heard good things about the Carbonetics ones as well. I have also heard the spec are pretty hit and miss on the quality some people love them others say they have tons of issues.....they are about 1/2 the price of other twins though.

My twin disc is Spec ST trim. It's just installed last week.
Very little rattle/flywheel chatter compared to my previous ACT HD with light weigh flywheel. My JWT didn't last long. Between them 3, I like the Spec so far for almost stock feel at pedal and great grabbing. As someone has mentioned, Spec twin disc is HALF $$$ compare to other twin discs. Im already ahead :-). I'm gonna try this Spec out. I'll report back in a few months.
Z1 has our twin disc on sale for under $1k.
