went to the track and it slipped like crazy only got a 2.00 60ft with a 13.8 with flash and tbe. I t slipped so bad I stopped running whats the point. so my ? is how are you guys getting 1.8 or 1.6 and not slipping the clutch it felt so weak. Thanks for your help.

Do you still have the restrictor in the hydraulics. If so, you will probably celebrate a clutch roast during every run.


...What's that smell?...

unless your real good dont remove it..its in the slave cylinder. mitsu put it there so you dont blow your t/c when you launch hard.. i got 1.6 on my stock clutch..didnt slip it though

 

I would think that a lot of theses guys getting 1.6 or 1.8 have fried the stock clutch long ago and have already replaced it.

 

i ran a 1.8 60ft on my stock clutch at 16k miles. now im almost a 20k and slips a little on a 5k rpm launch.

 

Last year I pulled a 1.7 on the stocker. 20k miles now and zero problems. It's possible, dunno how many times I'd advise doing it safely though.

Those numbers are really accomplished by slipping, I'd more call it dumping!

 

I pulled 3 1.7s in a row on my stock clutch last year. Hopefully I can go pull some 1.65s on it at the end of the month. It's almost dead though. I smoked it good when I first got the car about 10 months ago and I think that shortened the life considerably. I have 9K miles.

 

stock my car ran 13.7 @ 100mph with 1.9 60foot, rev it just a tad below 5000rpm slip the clutch quickly ( dont dump it, coz u ll bog) and u should have a very smooth take off, this is the best way i found so far that s easy on the tranny and clutch. with a 60' of 1.9-1.8 u can acheive great time without destroying transfer case and other tranny components.

 

thanks for the feedback I think I will just race to see if the mod has changed the car and not try for a fast time ie baby it of the line. so anything faster than a 14.5 at 100. is a inprovement.Thats with a 2.5 60ft stoplight start.
