clutch related question....
ok i currently have an ACT 6 puck unsprung in my fd. needless to say i don't like it for street driving. my car is currently away for winter, also getting a bunch of performance mods before spring. my question is, do i change the clutch now, or wait till AFTER i get the car back/dyno'd then change the clutch? the car is going straight to the dyno before it see's anymore street time as i've made a ton of changes and want to be sure everything is where it has to be. will a 6 puck sprung need to be "broken in"? or will it be ok "breaking in " on the dyno?

I think with 9k miles on the clutch you should be good to go as far as the clutch holding up. Really depends on how much meat is left on the disk. You stated that you really dont like the unsprung clutch so if you have the extra $$, Just change the clutch to something more suitable and comfrtable for you. That way when time comes to dyno the car you'll know the clutch is brand new so that problem would be out the way..

well yea thats what i'm gettin at i know the current clutch will be ok, i just don't like it. but i'm just wondering if i should wait till AFTER the dyno to put the new one in. so a 6 puck sprung wouldn't have any problems being "broken in" on the dyno then?

I would suggest leaving it alone until after you dyno. Then change to a different cluch. There are different opinions on whether or not to break-in clutches (organic or non); I would error on the side of caution on this one. It's not going to hurt a clutch that doesn't need to be broken in, to break it in. However, it will harm a clutch that needs to be broken in, not to be broken in.
