  1. going for something that is rated for higher power sounds like a great idea, except if it means using a cerametalic disc clutch that is used in an everyday car that is used in traffic, this is why some clutch manufacturers have a range of clutches, different clutches based on power levels and useage. Many people will want more than say 20,000 klms of clutch life from a cerametalic clutch which can handle heaps more power than the car has, when an organic clutch is nicer to drive and may get 60,000-80,000 klms of life if treated correctly. Yes if huge power is available then choices to handle it become fewer. Mal wood can rebuild his clutches if required but may recommend upgrade if driving style or power levels exceed what was originally selected
  2. bad driving can kill any clutch, we've seen Mal wood option 3 handle well over 400 rwkw, clutch disc material should be selected based on driving style
  3. lack of fluid will give a soft clutch pedal. What brand and model clutch is it?
  4. many low klm cars we drive do have slight diff noises, this will be amplified with stiffer bushes etc
  5. The superpro comforts are not indestructible, but either are any of the other bushes out there. Everything is a trade off.
  6. many will not warrant a standard build behind a modified engine, but this should have been made clear from the start if it is the case
  7. we often do cars from that side of town,
  8. you either have to continue with them or bite the bullet and take it else where to start all over again
  9. many people have a hard time getting around the torque management of the fords and the software they are using does not have complete control of some items that can have an affect on it. But saying that, there are guys that use it and have no apparent issues
  10. is this the same car from the Ford Forums, being tuned with HP? or just another with similar story?
  11. did you pay for a tune or diagnosis? any issues should have been sorted before worrying about tuning
  12. pretty sure doing it that way is only getting obd2 generic pids and are not as accurate as selecting through livelink
  13. Livelink is sct's free data logging software, you will get the most accurate numbers from it
  14. can you log it with livelink and do a 10-12 sec flat out run?
  15. there are literally hundreds of causes for the light to come on, overboosting is not one
  16. how are you measuring this temp?
  17. If it works like the video shows and lasts it will be a great thing
  18. what Sh!t, it has been discussed quite a bit back in possibly October or November and it appears everybody is excited to see it released
  19. Phone would not let me edit the first one
  20. Don, get with the times, it would be a bit of 100 x 50. Nah that does not sound right
  21. *****double and incorrect post thank to autocorrect on phone****

    Gtx3576R.

    many areas it is considered a quality ceramic bearing is superior to metal bearings

    Gtx3576R.

    His claims may be legit but showing the complete rpm range that it makes boost takes away any doubts for those doubting, if so they would be a good thing
