which is better the speed release from UPR or the UPR Triple hook and does it completely eliminate the plastic gearing that holds the cable and if so how does the aftermarket one grip the clutch cable with no teeth wouldnt it slip?
 
I have the Triple Hook with firewall adjuster. Works well. I have no experience with the Speed Release but it is just a single hook.

The end of the clutch cable has a beveled piece that just hooks onto the quadrant. Just don't go with the adjustable cable. My Steeda one broke inside of a week.

the plastic teeth on the stock piece isn't what holds the cable, they're there for adjustment. the "hooks" hold the cable, you have 3 options (hence triple hook) where to put it on the UPR piece

the "speed release" one i haven't tried but i do know it increases pedal effort a bit and makes the clutch feel a little more "on/off"

i have the Triple Hook and it works fine, never had any problems with it, and like ramprat already mentioned USE THE FACTORY CABLE

I had lots of problems with my speed release from UPR.. i broke my year old cable with it then with a new OEM cable it pulled my cable jacket through the firewall and i was stranded again. it was really hard to push with my King Cobra clutch but it wasnt that bad, I actually liked it(till it broke my cable).

I bought the MM quad and its alot nicer, smooth and 0 problems for over 2 years now. but i'll bet one of them triple hook kinds would be nice too.
 
I've got both, but I haven't tried the speed release one yet. To be honest, if you hold them up next to each other, you'll see the arcs are nealy the same, so I don't see where this 'speed release' is going to come into play...?
