I've got an Exedy Hypersingle for sale - $500 + shipping...

It'll hold anything you throw at it.

Change the trans fluid.

Get the stock 08+ SS Fluid if you can get it... otherwise get the stock 05-07 SS Fluid. Don't use aftermarket stuff.

i changed it out today and come to find out they think it is my syncros!!! the fluid was all milky with the red tint and had a metallic look to it so we are ripping it apart soon to make sure so i may try to get a lsd if i can since it will be apart...you think that would be a good idea?

I was talking to G11. The Trans Fluid definitely isn't your problem. You might be able to recondition the clutch into liking Stg2. Iono. My stock clutch was in my car on GM Stg2 w/ 2.8pulley for nearly 50k miles... and then about 10k miles on my Turbo Set-up pushing near 380whp. Never gave me a problem... my TOB actually gave up on life first. They are really picky clutches... they like to be driven a certain way. I worked a friend's clutch back into loving life once. Tried on someone else's too... but that one was useless... it was far gone.

They synchro's are probably fine... the Synchro BLOCKER RINGS are the problem. Who's taking it apart? There aren't many places out there that'll do that. BUT, if they're gonna have it apart... might as well throw an LSD in there.

The centerforce kit is AMAZING. I installed it in my car a few weeks back. Anyone who says lightweight flywheels are no good is full of ****. Just do the job right and you wont have any problems.

a local shop by my house and we are trying to get it under warrantee...and im sorry for the thread jack but today i got on it in first and as i was shifting into second it went into limp mode and was running like ****! i don't know where i shifted at but i want to say above 6k. i was literally out of gas and made it to the gas station and put in 12.323 gal...(isn't our tank only 12) anyways luckily there was a checker across the street and they let me take their code reader over and check it out and it gave me p2135, p0122, and p223...all of which said something about my throttle positioning sensor w/ hi or low input... i so i limped it over to my local shop and it is sitting there till tmrw till they can look at it and lmk what the hell the problem is i just wonder what else it could be...the guys at checker listened to it and they said it kinda sounded like maybe my timing was knocked off or something but i don't really trust them.
