Exedy 2011-2016 Ford Mustang V8 Hyper Single Clutch Sprung Center Disc Push Type Cover

If you've got a 2011-2017 Ford Mustang with a V8 and you've made some moderate performance upgrades, the Exedy Hyper Single clutch kit is a solid choice. This isn't a multi-plate setup, but it's built to handle more than a stock clutch can manage, especially when you've added things like an improved intake or exhaust. It's designed to give you better engagement and hold power for those slightly more demanding situations.

What sets this Exedy clutch apart is its forged aluminum cover, finished with a purple anodizing. This isn't just for looks; forged aluminum is much stiffer than the stamped steel covers you find on many stock clutches. This stiffness means the cover doesn't flex under load, which helps keep the pedal feel consistent and prevents clamp load deflection. This allows Exedy to maintain reasonable pedal effort even with the increased clamping force. Plus, the pressure plate has special vanes designed to channel air, helping to keep the clutch cooler during hard use, which can extend its life.

This kit includes a sprung center disc, which helps absorb some of the drivetrain shock, making it a bit more forgiving for daily driving compared to a solid hub. It's also SFI certified, meaning it meets safety standards for racing and high-performance applications. When you're installing this, remember it's a push-type clutch, so make sure your hydraulic system is compatible and properly bled. This is a well-built component designed to handle the demands of a modified V8 Mustang.
