Only issue I have is that it's a bit heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent it back to ACS and they replaced the pressure plate, machined the flywheel and replaced the material - that I had to pay for.This is what the clutch plate looked like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was slipping on the 8psi tune as well in 6th so I'm certainly going to need a new clutch next month.. I use the car to visit clients and need it to work so I'll go back to stock for a while and get the clutch done later. Bloody ford and their sh*tty clutches!!

It's a daily driver for work, just an entertaining one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went brilliantly though.. I'll enjoy it when I get the new clutch in. Bit of a bugger though, Ford's cars have always stood up very well to mods in the past. Now my new tyres will have to wait that little bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have already modded so soon, then its a garantee that you will mod more in the future. My advice, drop it to stock save some coin and do your clutch properly (Option three, or equivelent).Mal Wood does excellent work, but there are also other options, I was Pmed an option the other day from a non sponsor, if you are interested I will Pm you. Like I said Mal have never to my knowledge had a complaint and they appear to deliver everything they say they will so the last part is just about providing you an option should you require it.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
