No, mine didn't go out but I changed it! Better off changing it all at one time, rather than roll the dice and waste $400 plus on another clutch install.

I bought mine from GTM but Joe @ ZSpeed said they supply GTM w/ the CSC, so yes I do. Be sure to ask Joe or GTM if you need to use the included "sleeve" w/ your clutch/flywheel combo.

Never having a boosted car in general but specifically a high HP one that requires an aftermarket clutch, I dont quite understand what this means (newb ?). How do you feel your clutch "reacting" to the power and know if it's going out or needs to be replaced with aftermarket? Thanks guys

if you are in gear press your gas and it just revs it is time for a new clutch as it is no longer doing the job it is supposed to do.

clutches can only hold an amount of power once that power level is over their rating they will slip and not transfer the power to the wheels.

When I drive the car hard ( like your supposed to ) the clutch heats up , when I punch it or launch the car it's smokes and my RPMs hit redline like as fast they would if you were free wheeling , you'll know as soon as it happens , not to mentions it smells like burning lol, Anyways I think I'm gonna with the act clutch and flywheel

^^ thanks I figured there would be a big indication as far as how it would react, that was exactly what I needed to know. Pretty sure about going FI in the near future and it's threads like this one that are getting me closer and closer to pulling the trigger with all the great info coming from people first hand. Great build BlackonOrange and congrats on your numbers!
