So yesterday i had a ACT HDSS and Exedy flywheel install. Couldnt be any happier with the setup and the install... The only thing i noticed was that the car feels slower... I dont feel that "kick" anymore when i hit the pedal like before.. Seems that the turbo spools slower and takes longer to get moving to speeds.. I feel the most lost at low-midrange but car starts picking up in the top... I checked everything and theres no leaks and the car holds boost like before and everything was put back how it was..

Maybe it feels like this cause of the new setup and im not used to it? Maybe cause of the lighter flywheel? Any imput would help

 

the lighter flywheel helps you spool up quicker or at least it feels like it

 

lighten flywheel .... my guess.

 

go back to the track where you will SEE the results instead of just FEELING them.

 

It feels a lot slower to me but i feel the pick up on top end

 

Anymore suggestions?

You not a fan of proper clutch break in?

 

Maybe an IC pipe is loose or something from the install?

 

No, i checked everything already

Why will it get faster once it breaks in?

 

I need more imput from those of you that have clutches and lightweight flywheels!!

 

no it won't get 'faster' once its broken in but depending on the clutch material it needs time to mate to the FW surface before you can start beating on it. Otherwise you sevearly reduce the life of the clutch. I'm sure though, if it is an organic compound clutch, whoever did your install would have let you know this before hand...

 

Did you break it in? I believe there is a 500 mile "dont beat the **** out of it" time frame.

 

break it in psycho...geez i know you've been told to do that...some people ...so anxious
