Car Trouble: Slipping Clutch??? Not Sure, Help!

I was driving for 2 hours to NY, car was fine

Got HKS Racing intake installed and small Oddyssy battery installed as well.

Turned the car on and try to drive it, once it reaches like 3000 rpms and the blowoff valve comes in action, the car does not really accelerate at all.

I had a hard time getting to 70 mph. My friend's say it is a SLIPPING CLUTCH and that I need to get a new one. MY CAR IS SORT OF NEW 15,000 miles, but it is my first stick shift car.

I'm ready to buy a new clutch ACT Street disc tomorrow, But before I do i just want to make sure that it is my clutch and I heard my dealership warranty does not cover the clutch. PLEASE HELP AND ASSIST BEFORE I ORDER MY NEW CLUTCH!!! thanks

You forgot to add that once it hits 3000rpms and you step on it the car revs up and doesnt go anywhere then catches at about 5000rpms...get a new clutch..

And your car has 16000 miles on it, and you also mentioned you launch it 3 times a week?

You need a new one man
