The ACT LE1-XTSS kit features an Xtreme pressure plate for the most demanding driver on the Lotus Elise and Exige. ACT Xtreme pressure plates use ACT's exclusive diaphragm design to increase clamp load and reduce deflection, with every diaphragm going through a four-stage heat-treating process for unparalleled performance and precision cover stampings for rigidity and consistency. The Performance Street disc is ACT's most popular disc, using premium organic friction material with high copper content for improved heat transfer and steel-backed lining for durability, with reduced marcel for quiet operation and faster, crisper shifts.
