I'm thinking of going FI, but i'm not sure if i need to get a clutch and flywheel at the same time as the FI setup...will I be OK with the stock clutch and flywheel and a SC or TT?...or will it wear out super fast?

 

i have had a vortech and put almost 21k miles on it with stock clutch and flywheel. finally felt some slip today, so im searching for an aftermarket clutch and flywheel combo. u can do it but in time you will need to replace it. also i have 56k miles total on the Z. it was going to be about time anyway with how often i beat on it , (the vortech loves it though)

 

I'm in the 400whp range and haven't felt my clutch slip yet. I've had it on with the turbo for about 5k miles. I'm looking at getting a new clutch/flywheel setup soon because I know its only a matter of time. Still not sure which to get.

 

HP doesn't kill a clutch, Trq does. A ST car would be much harder on a clutch than a SC car. If you want to go with a less expensive option look into the JWT or RPS clutch/flywheel combo. Best bang for the buck.

 

How much are the JWT and RPS clutches?

 

how did the 20" rims do for you? lots of ppl bag on that stuff...just wondering how it is for you? handling..etc. thanks.

 

JWT are $725 shipped from Avalon Racing IIRC

 

My clutch lasted about 1000 miles after the TT install. It was BLUE when I took it out and it pretty bad shape. I could feel and smell it slip, sometime pretty bad. I got the ATS 2xcarbon. I dynoed my car to 450whp.
