im manual... why a new clutch? what do you reccomend?

the stock clutch is on borrowed time with the Boss manifold because of the high shifting. It cant take the abuse for very long. I recommend the Boss Clutch, or Mcloed

Idk y everyone says that the clutch is gonna give? There are a lot of ppl here shifting at 7500 rpm with the stock clutch and hAve been doing so for a while and no clutch issues. The clutch will hold go fine don't worry too much about it unless u start making a lot more power. But just bolts ons, u should be fine don't stress it.

Cuz it wont last forever, the material isnt strong enough to hold the pressure and heat from the HIGH ROM SHIFTS. Its been tested multiple times!

Getting back to shift points, I am with the others exept I have my light set at 7200-7300 rpm so I can shift at 7500. I have my soft rev limter set at 7500. It just makes me feel better. I tried shifting at or just before 7000 at the track and time suffered. Taking it into the 7000+ region is what it likes. I am also running 4.10 gears. Shifting into 5th before crossing the line is hurting my times though.

use a 3.90 gear and you'll be at the top of 4th
