lol when you're out of the house 14-15 hours a day it's hard to get anything done.

very much not looking forward to dropping the motor again tomorrow. (have a few other things I need to fix while it's apart). hopefully this is the last time for a while. need to have this trans at least make it to the event in july. then f23 swap.

oh we will find the limits, probably soon lol.
and I usually do about 250 miles of easy driving, I commute 150 miles a day and deal with a good amount of traffic in the city, so probably be ready to rock by mid next week,

Depends on tq curve, avail traction, and what your doing with the car. But for the most part I agree, hence why I switched back to 4.05

I'm breaking in a 4.45 now on a turbo car. 1st gear sucks even more than it did already but I like the feel that I'm always close to an rpm that I can give it hell in.

I do have 4.05 gears from Mongorat and I'm going to use them in my stock 3.82 trans and have it cryo'd and built. Lnf wagon how close are you to marketing that brace?

the lnf 3.82 is great but puts too much stress on the trans, need to find an f23 with a 3.65 (3.63) final drive, actually have a 1st gear you can use

Wow nice 60ft times. I can only dream of those. Should put you in low 12 1/4 mile time with your setup. Nice job!

Stage 3 clutch installed Monday may 9th. Oh man, this clutch bites real hard. still breaking it in but oh man this thing bites hard. Im still getting used to it compared to stock clutch. The pedal is alot smoother, in reality, its easier to drive, just less room for error. Amazing clutch so far.

lol ( nice 60's btw)
ran into some problems this weekend as usual (rain oil leaks etc)
so going to spend another week cleaning up the harness, removing the ac again (turbo rubbed a hole in the ac line not replacing for a 4th time). degreasing the whole car, and misc little maintenance stuff. have the car back on the road at the latest memorial day weekend

Waiting to see the clearance issue your are having with the pressure plate on your kit, first before those start shipping.

Ummmm, I thought these were already in use on other cars? How can one kit have clearance issues and the others don't?

This is what we and KY Performance are trying to figure out. The first two kits were fully installed over a month ago... 3rd kit is stating the pressure plate hits the F35 bell housing about 3/8"...

Is there is any way that TTR can give some store credit or partial refund to a person that bought 2 bad clutches from TTR?

PM us with your order numbers, KY performance handles all warranty, as we are not the manufacture. We can look and get this going for you then.
