I am currently running a Stage IV and yesterday on the highway my clutch started to slip in 4th and 5th gear while moving under hard acceleration. What is the best clutch and how much does something like this cost?

 

Tony call me tomorrow. I can help.

 

First off I would remove the dual mass setup. Use a light weight F/W and up the clamp force of the pressure plate. Depending on what you are going to do with the car ( I know ) You can make your choice. I then recommend a nice Kevlar disc. drivability will be near stock with a lot more holding power..

 

Duane and Stephen, thanks for the quick response and I will contact you guys tomorrow. I have some snow to go shovel (again)!!!

 

Yea, I just got done with ours. BaHumbug!

 

Me needs me one too....Stock is useless at the strip you know
I wish I though about this a while back then I owuld have bought the parts and had the dealer install them when they replaced my tranny!!

 

What is the stock clutch rated to handle in terms of power? Also my car feels fine under hard acceleration. I currently have 4300 miles on my car.

 

I never had any problems with my stock clutch. Mine had 11000 miles and I went to the Sachs racing clutch with single mass fly wheel.

 

What are some signs of a slipping clutch? The other day, I did a hard pull in 2nd and the car felt like the drivetrain disconnected for a split-second and the power came back again...is that a sign?

Stephen...How much holding power would you say the stock clutch is good for???

Thanks!
