Default IM lost on clutches!

Ive been searching for information on clutches for a while now, but I'm not really getting anything out of the information on here. Im looking for a clutch that actually GRABS at WOT, unlike the OEM *pos* haha. I would really appreciate some input and information on clutches everyone is running, how they are for DD and how they grab.

The information is always appreciated everyone.

I have an ACT clutch on my Ap1. It holds just fine even with the turbo.

Of course I am NOT do any 6K clutch dumps with it.

I think you have an AP2 from your pic in the sig... so make sure you get an AP1 slave cylinder while your down there.

Because when you say the POS clutch isnt grabbing... its actually because the AP2 has a delay valve in the slave so its like you are releasing the clutch very slowly and letting the clutch slip.

So its the POS slave not letting it grab, not the POS clutch.

Although the feeling with aftermarket clutch and flywheel is night and day vs stock.

So if you do fly, clutch and slave you will be amazed.

u dont have to buy a whole new ap1 slave cylnder. just remove the screen in side the ap2 slave. its the same thing for literally no money!

its a good reason why your ap2 clutch wont grab. but, if you waited to long to do it, then your clitch still wont hold. i did it, and i agree ap2 clutch sucks as it wouldnt hold a money shift in NA form. this is mostly do to the ap2 flywheel being considerably heavier then the ap1 flywheel.

if it was me, get a cllutchmasters stage 2 and an ap1 flywheel.
