I am puzzled if my clutch is going, here is what is going on 1st, 2nd and 3rd are fine no slippng but while I am in fourth and start to build boost then go WOT it will slip for a second then grip...

What I am wondering is that I can do a burn out without slippage or punch it in 1st second or third but in fourth gear it slips for a second..

Wise people let me know..

Thanks in advance

Fourth gear=more load. what happens in fifth?

Never got there as I would back off after fourth, but that does make sense though...daym I hate doing clutch jobs...

defo starting to go, could last another while all the same, but eventually you'll have to replace. m ine started to go in 4th as well

Typically fourth gear is where it starts to show up first. Your clutch is heading south.

Well, you could turn down the boost...

Hmmm...that doesn't sound like a good option, new clutch + more boost sounds much better.

I was running off the wastegate spring already, Boost controller was off...

Now I wonder if I should get a twin plate or just go with a single plate...

Kai, what boost/power levels are you looking at?

Right now car dynoed at 375WHP at 14lbs of boost, but I will be either going with a monster streetport or halfbridge probably by next year, so I will probably be at about 450 to 550 once all done..This is why I was thinking of just going twin plate...

I may be replacing my T04R also...
