Your jaw will hurt from smiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do ya like it or what.Be prepared, the next thing you know you'll have spent 10k on the car Yeah I love it although im a little worried that im going to break something. I had it in 4th... and I kept the foot down flat and when it hit boost hard it already slipped a bit... I know 4th is a strong gear and u need to build the boost into it because it seems like the standard clutch just isnt strong enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at upgrading the clutch asap for something like the Mal Wood Opt 3 or the Textralia Twin plate if you want a more competition style clutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might not think your chasing high numbers at the moment, but in a few months your likely to want to turn up the wick and start chasing some numbers. Think about where you wanna be in future and choose the clutch from there. No point in getting one that you will have to replace further down the line etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wont let myself go much more then ive already done. If anything ill go an intercooler setup and that's it. Im about to buy a house in the next few months so it looks like the mal wood option 3 will be the best bet! Plus one of my best mates is a mechanic so he'll be fitting it for me as a favour so ill save some money there!Thanks for the tips though you can never have enough!
