I have yet to find one compatible with these cars. Also, it won't free up any power as it only decouples when the alternator it is spinning FASTER than everything else.

Say have them de-energized at > 4000 RPM, think of the power savings, and I don't believe it would be a problem in a drag race scenario, road racing maybe.
Anyone thought of this ?
You'd be better served to replace the WP and PSP with electric variants than put a clutch on them to free up HP.
