Again, what do you mean by cattery?

I seriously doubt that your car turns into a housing area for cats...but then again, it might start to purrrrr...LOL.


Seriously....what do you mean? Does it shutter? Does it bog? Does it shake? Does it not catch? What? Describe it

Sounds like you have a stage 2 clutch that "chatters". If you don't like that then get a OEM clutch.

Negative comments are part of the internet, part of the forum, part of life. If you cant take negative criticism, you probably shouldn't post questions on the internet where you state you are "stupid" and doing "5k launches".

Okay....

I also have a clutch kit from ACT. Is it a normal clutch kit or a heavy duty one?

That makes a difference too.

Also, my car did that for quite some time. You have to adjust to the way you shift because the pressure plate and clutch are definitely different now. If it's still bogging after 7K miles, you may have to readjust how you let off the clutch and shift.

More so he doesn't know how to drive one of these and it's obviously way too much for the power he's making

I only got the heavy duty clutch because of all the power I was making when I was on E85.


I miss my E85 power... ='[

If you have a 6puck sprung or un sprung then good luck cuz that **** sucks lol
If you have an actual ACT Street HD then you shouldn't be chattering. My guess Is that they Installed a 6 puck In your car.
+1 for Exedy stock replacement.

I was told by many people that i have an act stage 2 clutch. From my experience, it requies a very strong sexay left leg to operate. Perhaps a case of chicken legs?

In my experience ACT clutches engage smoothly but have a very stiff pedal feel. If it chatters a lot there may have been an issue with the break-in process, install, or flywheel.

My favorite clutch by far is the RPS Street MAX. It engages smoothly and has a stock like pedal feel while holding a lot more power. It's not cheap, however.
