Performance Clutch?
Hey are there any specific performance clutches and or flywheels for our car. Are they universal? Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks for the help

Haven't seen anything yet. A quick parts search tells me that the 4B11 doesn't share the same clutch assembly with previous Lancers, and the release bearing is of a design that I haven't seen before, and expensive. You may have to wait a bit longer for one to come out. I would guess that either Clutchmasters or ACT will be the first to market with one.
You guys definitely need a clutch option, though. Had the opportunity to drive a GTS a week or so ago and the clutch pedal feels like there's no fluid in the line. I accidentally slammed the pedal to the floor when I first pushed it in.

I agree. After getting used to driving my manual, I jumped in my GF's tracker, and felt like i was getting a gastrocnemius workout. (ie: calf muscle)

There is a performance clutch by ACT for the evolution X. Would it work with our lancers? Part Number: ME1-XTG6 There are different types available though, this is just one of them. From $600 to $700.

To my knowledge the ME1 kit will only work on the EVO X. The Lancer uses a different engine and transmission combination. I just spoke to the R&D department and they did not have any scheduled dates for production of a kit for the lancer.

RRM has already put a performance clutch on their turbo Lancer, so I'd say something already exists. It's just a matter of finding out the maker/model number or waiting for RRM to sell it (with a markup for profit).
That's business, sadly...
