Are you still on the factory clutch? If so, this is your problem.

Oh dear lord no. I run a JWT single disk combo rated at 700 foot pounds. I know you're being thorough, but does anyone boost on a stock clutch?

I heard in the Boosted VQs FB group that a guy named Spooler was "working on something" until covid hit. Would this be you?

What JWT clutch are you running that's rated at 700ft.lbs? The one I used to run was only rated at 600ft.lbs. and I assume that was crank torque.

Yeah, I was working on it. I needed a couple of complete broken input shafts. I needed both sides. Unless I break one myself, this is a no go. It will stay on the back burner. Too busy to mess with it right now.

For a fast shift you need to reduce the spinning mass of the clutch. Carbon clutches are your friend but they are expensive. Look at an ATS triple carbon. Call MA-Motorsports.com. Talk to Jon. They can hook you up. It takes a while to get them, they come from Japan.
