Some shops will sell you that along with the ACT clutch (I'm getting mine (ACT + WRX FW) from MA Performance, but I know FredBeans and I think ImportImage does this too). You can buy them separately too, of course.

Well, as an ACT 6-puck and LWFW owner, I can concur with the above recommendations - go for it!

 

However, after all this time, I think that the FW has more to do with chatter then the clutch itself though the 6-puck is a bit more touchy to drive on the street. I have adjusted my street/normal launch style (quick slip between 1500 - 1900rpm).

I have the ACT heavy duty, and it's a very light clutch, IMO. Almost stock like. HOWEVER, it rattles on deceleration. There's a thread going about it. It's not the flywheel. I have a WRX OEM flywheel (which I recommend).

I just want to clarify, since one of the vendors I am working with is having issues understanding the kit I am looking for. This ACT/OEM FW kit consists of:

 

SB5-HDMM ACT clutch kit

2006+ WRX OEM Flywheel (PN 12342AA090 according to Fredbeans: http://www.fredbeansparts.com/servlet/the-1100/ACT-Subaru-Legacy-GT/Detail )

 

For my 2006 LGT 5MT, is that correct? (Particularly on the FW part number)...?

I ahve the full ACT setup and love it. There is a good amount of chatter on sow starts and decell. But i love the feel. Really did notice the HUGE drop in weight of the flywheel.

 

Make sure to have a reputable shop do the install and adjust the clutch..... Money well spent.

Sounds good - thanks for the confirmation.

 

Speaking of the rattle... has anyone tried the TranQuil TSK sleeve to help alleviate the noise? In theory, if that's the source, it might resolve that noise? I'm just wondering if I should consider that, too...

Is there a setup out there that is as noise free as the OEM clutch.?? I have about 105K on my stock clutch at stage 3 and I'm seriously considering just getting another stock clutch/flywheel..

Since the question is up in the air, is it the Flywheel that's making the sound on Decel or is it the Clutch?

I installed ACT LWFL and 6 Puck at the same time so I really don't know which one is making the sound.

I have the same exact setup as you and the accompanying issues. I've simply changed my driving style/launch and all is well for the most part. :)
