Arrow ACT Clutch & Fidanza Flywheel EVO 8 Installation Instructions!

Hey Guys,


www.EvoMoto.com has just put up our new tech article on how to install an ACT street clutch kit and a Fidanza lightweight flywheel.


Act Clutch & Fidanza Flywheel Install

There is no denying that the stock Evo clutches are weak. Replacing them with an upgraded version that has higher torque holding capacity is usually necessary for modded Evos or those that see track time. The ACT clutch we are installing here fits the bill perfectly for Evos that are making up to 500 FT-LBS of torque and are smooth enough for daily use.

If you are an avid DIYer, you may be thinking about adding an Evo clutch install to your list. This is really one install that you should contemplate having done professionally. Even with much experience installing clutchs in AWDs, this was a somewhat humbling experience. It was done the "hard way" (on the ground using jacks and jack stands) like many enthusiasts would in their own garages. It was far from "fun" and took much longer than expected......

No!!! EvoMoto has closed down their website?! Well, I had been referring to this clutch & flywheel guide a lot.

However, you know what, praise the Machine God, in 2023 I saved a pdf copy of the EvoMoto guide. I can share this to EvolutionM, so our Evo owners can still have access to this godsent installation instruction:

Step 1 ~ Step 2
^Step 1 ~ Step 2
Step 3 ~ Step 9
^Step 3 ~ Step 9
Step 10 ~ Step 16
^Step 10 ~ Step 16
Step 17 ~ Step 23
^Step 17 ~ Step 23
^Step 24 ~ Step 31
^Step 24 ~ Step 31
^Step 32 ~ Step 39
^Step 32 ~ Step 39
^Step 40 ~ Step 47
^Step 40 ~ Step 47
^Step 48 ~ Step 54
^Step 48 ~ Step 54
^Step 55 ~ Step 61
^Step 55 ~ Step 61
^Step 62 ~ Step 69
^Step 62 ~ Step 69
^Step 70 ~ Step 76
^Step 70 ~ Step 76
^Step 77 ~ Step 79
^Step 77 ~ Step 79

That's the guide! Kindly reply if you have any comments or inputs.

My Evo X is getting its OEM clutch replaced (by an Exedy OEM clutch kit). The Evo X's transmission design is so very different from that of the Evo 8 and 9, and the EvoMoto guide here certainly does not apply to Evo X.

Mitsubishi Evo X transmission, clutch, and flywheel removed.
