Opinions twin disc clutches

I'm getting fed up with my 1g AWD's clutch. I've been using an ACT 2900 with unsprung 6 and 4 pucks for the past few years. Long story short, they always seem to cause clutch drag when they get warm, and I then I'm not able to shift about 6000 RPM.

To this end, I've been thinking about picking up a twin disc setup. I've been leaning towards a Competition Clutch setup as I'd rather not dick around with a ring gear.

The one thing that has me slightly concerned is reading in a few places that twins are even easier to warp than a single? This is my one reservation about buying one as I tend to punish my clutch vs gearbox when launching.

Does anybody have any experience with excessive warping causing clutch drag and then syncro damage when using multi-disc clutches?
