Hi

ok its been going for a while and ive know just been putting it off but after remap and using all the engine power now in 6gear at high speed then trying to go faster starting to slip!
What should i get just new clutch? or uprated one?
i dont want to cheap out and it just ruin an oem clutch fast but ive seen some which look so excesive for the power im running, just wandering what clutches most of you with superchargers have as long weekend coming up so want to try and order one and get it done then.

The top bolts are a PITA to get to, I believe a long extension or 2 and a UJ attachment is needed. Some people say you can get the bolts from the top? Wayne did mine from the bottom - all done in 2 hours - on a proper lift I may add.

The man speak truth! I did mine on my drive and it was horrendous! You need LOTS of extension bars to get the top bolts.

Agreed lots of extension for the top bolts and make sure all the wiring is out of the way when putting it back together I managed to trap the wire for the speedo.
