RST uses Organic discs, RXT uses ceramic discs. The RST is a nice clutch and is rated to 800 hp, but it's not recommended if you plan on getting the clutch really hot, organic discs don't like heat. The RXT's ceramic discs can withstand heat a lot better and is rated to over 1000hp while still being very driver friendly, I have got nothing but great feedback on this clutch. We put one in our 2010, but the car is not done with surgery just yet.

I'm running a Spec P trim from the gang at Lethal. Drives like stock and I think I've been putting to the test. My car has gone 9.98 at 147. It make a little over 1000hp to the tires.

I ran the RXT in my KB'd 2007 GT500 and loved it. pedal pressure is much lighter but the grip is amazing. No chatter, either. When the time comes to replace the clutch in my 2010, I will do the RXT again, no doubt.

I've been running the RXT in my Shelby for about 2,000 miles at 900+ rwhp. The clutch has the manners of a stock setup while also being able to handle 920 ft/lbs of torque. I would recommend this to any GT500 owner making over 700 to the tire.
