ATS carbonetics clutch forced break in
#31
Thanks Wes for all the info. Todd K. was the one that highly recommends this clutch for these set ups and I listened to him as I always do. Todd K. has never let me down with his advices and knows what he is talking about. I will look for those spikes on the first pull Remember this is VR's modified clutch that holds 840 wheel TQ. I did not go with my 8.5" single disc Tilton b/c only holds 700 wheel torque which I was at that level before my project. Cheers

Mike,
BBi has made me a half way clutch stopper like RSR technology which makes the shifts close as good as a tip car After we install the Carbonetics I will see if I can post some pics of what I have. Basically I'd like to make the engagement point right in the middle where the stopper is to make shifting quick like before. There are ways to get around what you want. 993tt's are much easier to work with since the rod in bottom is adjustable but not 996tt's. Betim made a special one for me which I will post some more info on it on my thread when I get near completion.

Carbonetics web site states that the Triple is rated at 1,500ps. What is a "PS". Is that Japanese for HP or TQ?

1500BHP Robert, I talked to the a guy by name of Tiyo at Carbonetics a while back while I was doing my research. Todd K. feels that this clutch actually holds up much more power than it's advertised.

Exactly what you said bro, checked with Betim and that's exactly what he did.

I purchased a new master and almost had it altered. But now I am so use to the clutch (4000 miles later), I rarely think about it. The only issue I have with the master cyclinder mod is that the clutch pedal will be lower than the brake. Unless he came up with a fix for that too.

I also remember my7 discussion with Tiyo. He did state that it would hold large amounts of HP/TQ and you will be the truth factor to that claim. I ran mine for 800 miles before I did any hard driving.

Art I have the same clutch as what you have but i don't have the horses that you will, I swear no word of a lie i probably have 40-50 street races and about 20 old hard launches not to mention me driving it in the city through traffic here and there.
you have a great clutch my friend!

I give you a lot of credit bro. I think I would be passed out on those meds by now. Be positive b/c techonlogy has gotten very advanced now. Did you get this in SD or TX?
