how bad do i need a clutch

Post by PWRD_BY_HKS »

Okay so I'm about ready. But I don't really have enough money for a clutch. How bad or more like how urgent do I need it. I don't plan to launch all crazy but I might not be able to resist my self from spooling up in second

if ur using a stock clutch don't be suprise if ur clutch starts sliping when boost kicks in.

i had a dualfriction centerforse clutch on my f-series trans. it couldn't even hold 8psi when boost kick it. thats sad. where my 1.6 miata act extreme clutch held up to 18psi.

Yeah, mark one up for ACT. They make a great clutch. I doubt your stock clutch lasts a week they way you describe all your MX-3 issues.
