HELP!~ they comin to get me

I have a m2 clutch kit with the light flywheel

its got ~5k miles on it and not really driven that hard

but now that I took it off its toast
on the disk the pressure plate side is HALF as thick as the flywheel side and the flywheel side looks like it got really hot or someone took a steak knife to it.

I'll be running some big hp and I dont want this to happen again. What kind of disk can I get or do I have to get a oem and where is the cheapest place to get one?

I'll post pics in a few

thanks team

It doesn't look bad at all to me. When my clutch went out and started slipping, clutch disck was flat as the pressure plate.

You have two disimilar surface contacts and obviously one is grabbing and one is not. I would suggest a system with the same contact material made for higher hp applications. ACT extreme set up would probably be a good set up for you.

Well I want to take care of this now if it needs replacing. I dont feel like ever working on my car again after all this engine BS.

Chris what do you mean exactly?
so the side thats thin sucks and I need a disk with 2 sides like the one thats all gouged up?

BTW I Never had any problems ever with the clutch. not an ounce of slipping or complaints.
