Clutch

Its your Clutch Bro. I recently had mine done. -- It is pricey, but well Worth it afterwards. -- My Car Drives like a CHAMP!!!

My Clutch would slip around 3k RPM- It would Boost Crazy then Drop RPMS and then catch speed. - I took it to RRE and we did the Boost leak test, all was good. - IT was definately the Clutch. I replaced the Stock with the ACT 2900 - GOOD LUCK BRO! Sorry for your Issue.

Stop everything you are doing LOL. If it has been doing this why keep doing it? You will end up with an undriveable car real soon if you do that. Since you dont have the money thats bad news. My clutch lasted a lil while while slipping and ended up doing the job myself so i could save the money i didnt have. Just be very easy on it so you can get the car to go for now. Do you have another car you could use?

Yes as stated many times before me your clutch is on the way out. My car currently is at the shop having the clutch replaced. I was able to baby it for about a month till I had sufficent funds to pay for parts/install. Since it sounds like you have slipped it a few times pretty good already you should consider driving the car only when needed. Plus most important, don't waste your time replacing with the stock clutch even with the bolt-ons. Not saying go twin disc but something in the lines of like an Exedy stage 2 HD ( what I went with) or something with a decent torque rating. Subject has been covered just do the research. Good Luck

it's your clutch. also, if you trust the guy enough to work on, and tune your car, don't you think he'd be able to diagnose a slipping clutch? lol

but yeah, it's your clutch. 100% guaranteed that it is your clutch slipping.

You can find some decent deals on lightly used items in the classifieds section. A clutch would be a bit hit or miss but if it is your daily then do what you have to.

Keep your foot out of it.

For me this would mean keeping my *** out of it.
