Unhappy Damn...steve kan tuning and looking for parts

I got an email from Steve telling me that he won't tune over 12psi on Atkin's Apex seals. Anybody else running Atkin's Apex seals? I am pretty bummed about this, and am going to talk to him and Atkins tomorrow hopefully.

If anybody knows where I can get a decent clutch for a good price I would really appreciate it. I guess the stocker only holds to 300rwhp before slipping.

I an also looking for an HKS twin power or AEM...anything that will work really. I am going to call all the shops tomorrow looking for the goodies, but hopefully somebody can steer me the right way.

Thanks for your help,
Zach

ACT 6-puck w/ HD PP is what I am running. Very easy to drive and have seen it hold plenty of power. That is a fair amount of work to do in a short time though.

Instead of the twin power you can run a MSD box on the leading thats what I am doing, works fine. Try craigslists for the msd. Only 12 psi, interesting?

That's pretty ridiculous about not tuning beyond 12psi on Atkins seals...? Doesn't Atkins advertise their seals being able to withstand up to like, 45psi in one of their sponsored race-cars?
