Default Turbo Clutch Upgrade

Folks I doing my clutch today on my 2.1L Metric motor. Current clutch is a Spec stage 3 good for 305ftlb torque. This clutch completely blows out in 3rd gear at anything over 17psi, 1st and 2nd is tire spin with the stage 3 hooked up.

I'm going to the stage 5 clutch good for 450ftlb of torque to hopefully solve the clutch slkip issue so I can run a honest 1/8 mile at high boost (25psi).

Here is the clutch disk I'm using

Brused back of head, swollen right eye(my good one) and many cuts and the trans is out. It took me over 4 hours to get it out. Everything that could have gone wrong did. I really hope it is an easy install today due to yesterdays total pain in the butt.

Even this morning I put coffie grinds in the coffie maker water holder. I'm tempted to hold off one day because I'm worried my bad luck is with me today due to the coffie maker stupidity.

Everything that went wrong was my fault too. I'm not used to working on my car sober but drinking is not a option for me anymore

Grrr, John S

Congrats on your choice to turn your life around John - you will find it a whole new world since you see a lot of things that you never noticed before - even if some of them suck...
