A Stage 1 clutch is the introductory level clutch used in cars used for daily driving. Stage 2 and greater clutches are designed for racing applications.
A stage 1 clutch is built for street cars that are mildly modified. The clutch has increased clamp loads that allow the capacity to handle the modified engines of the street cars.
No, a clutch has nothing to do with effeciency of the engine.
You should use the clutch anytime you shift, up or down. It is possible to downshift without the clutch, when there is little torque involved, such as slowing for a stop, but that still causes momentary high torque on the engine and transmissioin components. There is usually a torque spreader inside that will handle these torque transients, but it is designed to only handle the momentum of the transmission and final stage clutch, not the input stage clutch and engine.
