WOW clutch ... again

Post by hgallegos915 »

ok... I thought spec clutches were good... LOL

my clutch held up awesome over the summer. Numerous track sessions(around 4 )

daily driven, I did do a few burn outs... now its starting again... little by little... its starting to slip under full boost... ive already replaced the center seal so its not oil thats in there.... Is it because I have a fidanza flywheel? any other expensive clutch that you guys can recommend that will hold? It only slips when i floor 1st and second(no spinning tires) and it high rpms.

im boosted at 5 lbs, so im sure im not putting out extreme numbers to be eating away clutches? o.0

'Struth mate. Are you missing the clutch cover? That clutch is pretty brutal, I think mine would much sooner explode the entire tranny than slip.
