Clutch finally slipping =/
as title says my clutch is finally slipping after 29,900miles, 2 times at track and once at drag. ive droven it hard since the day i got it and im surprised it lasted this long had to change brakes at 10k.
just to give ya an idea how heavy my feet are.. but lets get down to business!!!!... i would like some suggestions or basically help me in the right direction!! Since i cant drive my EVO and now driving a piece of SHi* jetta for the past 3 weeks now.. Its time to revive my baby ROSE!!!
the direction i wanna go is basically i wanna have a 400+hp EVO something i can take on the track 2-4 times a year and still be able to be drivin as a daily-driver... so far i have a Espelir TURBOBACK, Nisei LICP, WORKS Drop-in, and private Tune done by AL.... I have a total of $6K+ i can spend.. and this is where i need some assistance i have 6k to spend i was thinking EvoGreen if i need it($1700) S1 Cams ($660) Exedy twin plate($1500) ARP head studs, titanum springs, retainers. seats and seals($400) Boost controller($80) and last but not least a fuel pump ($80) + TUNE anyone out there wannt tune my car?!?!? would that be the reasonable buy?!?!? but installltion gonna be prolly 2k installtion?!?!? cuz my lazyy **** dont wanna put it in i already have enough to do at work (Land Rover Tech) well thats my WISH LIST am i going the right path or the wrong path??....if thats a good idea please tell me so if not then im open for suggestions!!!! well thats that
i just want to one major change since im already upgrading the clutch might as well give it some power right?!?!

if you are set on going with the GSC S1's you don't have to do the titanium valve springs and retainers so you can save there. With the money saved from that you should look into a methanol kit...from what i've seen with your mods list +Evogreen+s1's+meth= 400whp or really damn close to it with torque exceeding that mark. Good luck though.
look into ACT xtreme clutch w/street disc. Good for about 550ft/lbs, which should be enough if you are going with the green turbo. I love my ACT combo. I had the money to go with exedy/tilton twin, but after a lot of research, Im glad I chose to go the cheaper route. The clutch drives better than stock and holds like a ****. Launching is very good, especially if you have a 2-step. Good luck with your decision. You can't go wrong with the Exedy twin either, from what I hear.
well i came up with a conclusion...since no-ones interested in my thread LoL
ill be dissin the EVOgreen and hopeing to get the best out of my stock turbo since its elgible to reach 400hp
soo STOCK TURBO w/S1 Cams, ExedyTwin plate, Boost Controller, fuel pump, and bigger Injectors + my existing mods already on my EVO...Sooo i hope to reach that 400hp mark
well thats that. ill post My results in a couple of weeks TIME TO SPEND THAT MONEY!!!!

I would go ACT clutch and flywheel combo. Dont get me wrong I like the Exedy twin but for the price and you just want to stay around the 400 hp area the ACT will do just fine. If you plan on doing bigger hp numbers go with the exedy.
if your willing to make a trip to Vegas, I can get all those installed and Doug's Dyno here can do a good tune for a reasonable price... oh and i would stick with the stock turbo, i'm making 406 whp and 448 ft lbs on a mustang dyno, if you need more than that, then go to the green
stock injectors and pump are working fine for me too

Go with a Cusco Twin Disc FTW!
Oh and if Going GREEN.. Definitely get a Meth KIT. Also, change your DROP in Filter and get a nice Intake set up and/or a Nesei UICP. Just to match ur lower... I hear you getting faster spool time.

since you have a ix, you could get you're ix turbo rebuilt by buschur to 20g lt (evogreen) spec for $995. if i'm not mistaken it is the same thing as the green. so it wouldn't cost you $1700
