You have to replace your clutch already? How many miles do you have?

Damn Matt already? Burnouts must be fun I'm too scared to do them in mine

I would just go with an ACT organic setup, similar to stock pedal feel and holds the power you're looking to have.

Use TQ ratings when referring to a clutch though, that's how they do it.

I got the Spoon Sports set up (3 puck clutch,flywheel,pressure plate) and it grips really hard but I don't recommend it if you don't have a built rear diff cause i blew up two of them before my Spoon rear diff got to me. On the flip side though it's pretty easy to daily drive on it.

You should try the BlackTrax Stage 3 Clutch. Both Jei and myself love the clutch. The clutch can handle up to 300 ft/lbs or TQ and has the stock feel.

That is an expected behavior in AP2's, since you have a clutch delay value.

Isn't the clutch delay valve was design to put less stress in the differential?
