Description
Built specifically around the fitment requirements of 2003–2007 Mitsubishi Lancer, the EXEDY Performance Clutch Kit – 2003–2007 Mitsubishi Lancer gives owners a direct way to choose EXEDY hardware matched to daily-driven and enthusiast street applications that need dependable engagement and OE-correct fitment.
About EXEDY
Since 1923, EXEDY has developed clutch and powertrain components for OEM and performance use around the world. The company's Daikin Clutch heritage and motorsports engineering experience underpin a catalog that ranges from OE replacement hydraulics and clutch kits to SFI-certified sport clutches, chromoly flywheels, and Hyper multi-plate assemblies.
How This Product Is Intended to Be Used
EXEDY's performance single- and multi-plate systems are intended to raise torque capacity and heat tolerance while matching the engagement characteristics to the car's intended use. Stage 1 uses an organic friction strategy for the most street-friendly behavior; Stage 2 moves to cerametallic friction for harder use; Hyper systems add dedicated flywheel and multi-plate architecture for substantially higher-output builds.
Choose the least aggressive configuration that comfortably covers the engine's torque and heat load. That approach normally gives the best balance of drivability, service life, transmission friendliness, and track durability.
Available Configurations
This parent listing contains multiple EXEDY configurations for the same application family. The differences below are functional and should be selected around torque demand, heat load, and acceptable engagement behavior.
| Configuration | EXEDY Part Number | Construction / Character | Torque Capacity | Recommended Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hyper Twin (MM022HR) | MM022HR | Twin-plate Hyper system with lightweight chromoly flywheel; pull-type cover. Direct, motorsport-oriented engagement. | EXEDY general Hyper Twin family rating: approximately 500 ft-lb at the flywheel; verify the exact SKU/application | High-power street, drag, road-race and rally applications |
| Hyper Twin (MM022SDF) | MM022SDF | Twin-plate Hyper system with lightweight chromoly flywheel. Direct, motorsport-oriented engagement. | EXEDY general Hyper Twin family rating: approximately 500 ft-lb at the flywheel; verify the exact SKU/application | High-power street, drag, road-race and rally applications |
Application Recommendation
The variants offered for 2003–2007 Mitsubishi Lancer are not cosmetic choices: each changes friction behavior, thermal capability, clamp-load strategy, or plate count. Match the selection to actual engine torque, tire grip, vehicle weight, launch frequency, and street-versus-track duty rather than simply choosing the most aggressive option.
Engineering Details
- Clamp Load: Stage 1/2 covers are designed around roughly 40% higher clamping load than the genuine part
- Pedal Effort: Typical Stage 1/2 increase is approximately 20–35%, application dependent
- Flywheel Compatibility: Stage 1/2 generally use the OEM flywheel unless noted; Hyper systems include/require their dedicated flywheel
- Certification: EXEDY Stage 1, Stage 2 and Lightweight Flywheel products are SFI 1.1 certified
- Vehicle Application: 2003–2007 Mitsubishi Lancer
- EXEDY SKUs: MM022HR, MM022SDF
Application-specific construction notes: Pull-type cover, Cerametallic friction.
Fitment note: Confirm the vehicle's engine/transmission combination and the clutch or flywheel currently installed before ordering. This is especially important on cars with prior single-mass conversions, transmission swaps, or existing EXEDY Hyper hardware.
