With a strong clutch is new slave required?
I'm thinking of replacing my stock clutch with an ACT street clutch with these increased pressure plates do I need to replace the slave cylinder?
ZX2-HDSS: pressure increase 34% over stock
ZX2-XTSS: pressure increase 75% over stock
Also, I know that I have not added a lot of HP but the OEM clutch could not really handle a stock engine, and now I'm adding a cold air box, and header will the 34% increase ACT kit be enough?
Thanks Al

You don't "need" to, but it's really recommended unless yours is new or recently rebuilt, especially with how cheap a whole new slave cylinder is. I'd also go for the stainless steel clutch line while you're at it (which is also very inexpensive).

Where do I find stainless steel clutch line ?
I should clarify, by new, I meant will the stock slave be OK or do I need to upgrade it to a stronger unit?
