What is the benefit of the increased clamp load?

The increased clamp load, ranging from 20 to 50 percent over stock, means the pressure plate can hold the clutch disc more firmly against the flywheel. This is important when using a performance clutch disc to prevent slippage under higher torque loads.

What type of clutch disc is recommended with this pressure plate?

ACT recommends using this Heavy Duty pressure plate with either a street disc or a race disc. These types of discs are designed to handle the increased clamping force for improved performance.

Does this pressure plate come with a clutch disc or flywheel?

This part is for the pressure plate only. You will need to purchase a compatible clutch disc and flywheel separately if you do not already have them.
