Default Removed Clutch..Have some questions

I removed my clutch today because it was slipping in high gears. When i would floor it at like 50mph the tach would just climb and the car would not move, when i removed the clutch the disc didnt look extremely worn like i thought it would and from my experience doing other clutches. Just wondering if this has happened before, i didnt order a flywheel, but it looks glazed and purple spots cover the face of it as well as the pressure plate. Just your guys opinion on getting a flywheel or not??? I have pics but i dont know how to load them on here, if someone tells me i will post them. Thanx

I highly recommend replacing the flywheel when doing a clutch swap. Ive heard that our stock flywheels cannot be resurfaced so that option is out.

I would replace it as well. The ACT pro-light flywheel is awesome. I had it on my 06' and never looked back. It revved much quicker.
