Clutch slipping with 20g-9-5.

Clutch slipping with 20g-9-5.
I have a ACT HDSS and it's worked awesome for over 2 years. But with the new turbo, it slipped very slightly since the first time I got on the gas, Now I can't get on the gas hard at all without slippage. Would you guys recommend going with the same setup or trying something new? I'm looking to spend the same amount of money.

IMO, a street disc is useless. If you're serious about racing or about going fast.....a puck should have been your first choice. upgrade once. Try a xtreme plate and a sprung 6 puck (MD7-XTG6), it's what I plan on going with.

maybe I should have used different terminolgy. Here is what I should have said. "Don't expect a street disc to last too long on a high powered car"......but this doesnt quite hit the nail on the head. Once again, IMO, if you are serious about racing...I dont think a street disc should be in the equation. With the 20-9 a street disc is ADEQUATE, but for how long and under what driving conditions. I would recomend a puck.

The 6-puck (or any pucked disk) will be very grabby and hold power wonderfully. You could do 7k clutch dumps, and that sucker will rip out of the hole until the rest of the drivetrain explodes.
The downside is it will have very harsh engagement, mainly when starting from a stop in 1st and reverse. You have to rev up higher than normal to get started, and it won't want to slip. It's really sucky for stop and go traffic, fine for daily driving without traffic, and usually great at the track.
I'm basing these comments off my Exedy stg2 4-puck cerametallic that I used for a while and from witnessing a friend of mine drag race with his ACT 6-puck.
