There have been guys that ran the stock clutch for their tuning. Don't expect it to last that long though.

Oh I don't expect it to .the one in my supercharged one is feeling a little weak as well ...so after tuning the turbo one I'll have to plan new clutches for both not sure which clutches are good both daily driving and holding the power

Unless you are going for serious power, I've had really good luck with my Z1 full face and lightweight flywheel. Heard good things about Southbend too.

If mine goes out I'm replacing it with Clutchmasters.

Lol what is serious power? Prolly gonna tune around 10-12 lbs not sure what whp that will be tho ... my supercharged is at 12lbs .. but the turbo will have more TQ

Of course there's a lot of driver habits in there. I'm not hard on clutches. I've probably driven 350-400k miles (only three cars) on manual transmissions and have never burnt out a clutch.

Jinxx · 08-04-2017, 11:07 PM

I'm at 522 whp with 395 TQ...with the supercharger on stock clutch ...but I think it's showing it's signs of getting weak

The single turbo of Sasha's kit is going to come on like a freight train. It'll be a ton worse on the clutch than the SC.

Little 2018 update on my build, more parts have been ordered,

Jwt HD clutch & lightweight flywheel
Cmak
