Default Just ordered the Spool turbo and questions about.......

When installing the Spool turbo setup is there anything I should do with my clutch? should I change it, if so what brand? How about the flywheel? Lighter? Will it burn up?

Do I have to worry about my rear end breaking, Maybe its better not to do hard launches?
I know Terry will see this and chime in on this thread!
Thank you!!

I'm partial to the ATS clutch, light and strong but expensive

Long as you don't do high RPM clutch drops or bang gears your diff should be fine but I could be wrong kinda new here.

Do not do hard launches! It will most likely break your diff.
You should definately get a new clutch that can handle the extra power. I'd say ACT, Clutchmasters, or Exedy might work for a turbo S.
As for the flywheel, I'm not sure. My first thought is yes, but after thinking it over, you'd probably want to ask someone who has more experience with it.

Sorry I did not catch this earlier we are still not finished settling in. In regards to your clutch just make sure its not a puck style, excedy, ACT are all good. Just go with the setup that has minimal clamping force but slightly greater then stock... Its better to burn out a clutch than a tranny

Stay away from a lightned flywheel with your turbo you will more than likely encounter idle problems
