The ACT MB018X pressure plate uses ACT's exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load, reduce deflection, and maximize clutch life for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Every diaphragm endures a four-stage heat-treating process, and precision cover stampings keep the plate rigid and consistent. The Xtreme diaphragm increases clamp load 50-120% over stock and is recommended for use with a street or race disc. The kit also includes ACT's Monoloc collar, a one-piece direct replacement for the standard two-piece wedge collar and wire ring used in pull-type clutches. Its segmented retaining ring is spring-tension calibrated for uniform loading on the bearing and pressure plate, and its hardened chrome-moly steel construction is built for years of service.
