Default paddle clutches.

hi guys. im on the hunt for a paddle clutch at the moment for a 4x4 cosworth. im trying to get one from somewhere. without going to burtonpower they seem to be well expensive there but it looks like i may have to. i have been there to price them up and the 6 paddle seems to be cheaper than the 4 paddle why is that? i thought 6 paddle's could take more stick than the 4 paddle's im confused.

4 is more harsher to drive, a on-off type of thing.

6 paddle is better than the 4 imo.

iirc the 4 can take more power.
