Still breaking in my clutch, I know I have to put somewhere between 500-700 miles on it, or something like that. Problem is that once the car starts to warm up, say after 10-15 mins of normal driving, the car will slip under boost. The motor just revs, the turbo is spooling but the car doesn't want to catch up as fast. At first I thought it was a problem with the clutch i.e. its f*cked. But now Im just open to suggestions. God I feel like a real dumbass. Im not really sure if I am explaining this right though. Please let me know if I am not being specific enough. So basically it slips under boost and only when the car is warm. I can get a few good pulls before the car starts to warm up and I do not beat it that hard, just to like 4-5 grand. anyways, HELP please.

Readjust the pedal runout after it's warm and see if it changes.

Mine has the same issue...

But my clutch was in for a year before I went turbo... It use to hold fine but now wont do shit.

Did you put in a stock clutch? Even while turbo?


My RPS Max will be in Friday... I could not fix my slip issue.

Btw 10psi.... What you at?

it's a spec stage 2 clutch. clutch has never really felt that stiff though. could be an issue. how do I adjust the pedal runout? again the car will drive absolutely fine. its only during boost in 2nd gear and up around 4-5 grand that it wont want to grab as fast, but I can still drive it normal, if that makes any sense.

the adjustment is behind the clutch pedal. make sure the clutch is fully depressing.
