sorry for all the questions,but last one. does that also includes shipping?? was going to go back to spec (had one on my hhrss),but clutch is begining to slip earlier than expected and that's with normal driving. the kid that had this car before me was said to drive it harsh and really couldn't drive a standard well. i saved her at 29k
anyhow, hearing alot of great things about this clutch,sooo i guess i will be giving you a call in one week!!

Order sooner than later, as next week all shipping carriers get swamped, and seems like everything slows down so much!

it came in today!!
i really don't plan on going big turbo,unless my stocker craps out. just with the mods i have, my tranny shouldbe fine...right?? i have grown old of hard core "street racing" and i only race my bike at the track... i like to get on it every now and then on the hwy if one wants to play. my concern came when i saw recently saw a post stating a too aggresive clutch could damage a tranny. any truth to this??

Awesome!
With 100's sold, of KY and many other brands of clutch kits sold, I dont believe it.
Just as many people with stock clutch kits blow their tranny as aftermarket clutch kits. It is not the clutch, as it is the driver and abusing the car, or running more power through the transmission than it can take.

what is KY's recommended break in procedure? For some reason I remember hearing city only driving of approx 500 miles, is this correct?
I'm asking because I need to drive back to school (250 miles all highway) and I'm just wondering what I should try to do before the drive, thanks!

Yeah ive broke in a clutch before and usually the rule is no WOT, no hard launches, keep the revs on the lower side. Just as precautions.

lol highway miles are not "bad" for the clutch. it's just that hwy miles won't break the clutch in right. someone might take that literally and will be scared to drive the car on the hwy. because of work,i travel roughly 10 miles of hwy and 7miles city one way.i waited till a little of 600miles to get on mine.

break-in has begun! Loving the feel of the clutch, way smoother than stock. I'm an F23 with the KY stage 1. On a side note I paired it with the exedy lightweight flywheel as recommended by aaron and it feels amazing! Revs are smoother and faster. Thanks for the great setup TTR! I'll report back after break in
