I bought a Spec Stage 2+ from TTR around March, and it does NOT come with the TOB/Slave Cylinder. You need to purchase these directly from GM (like CED).

Now, this is for the SS/SC, I am not sure for the 2.4 SS. TOB: http://www.crateenginedepot.com/stor...P1893C229.aspx

If you ddn't purchase and install one of these, they might off reused the old one and that is most likely your problem. Either that or you glazed your clutch during break in, because my Spec Stage 2+ has 13k miles on it and it still grabs like new.

I took the car back to the mechanic and he took the clutch out we could see he was slipping and that the clutch became slippery("is that what they mean with glazed"). we've tried to use the Spec pressure plate with the GM clutch then he grabs better then with the Spec clutch but not enough
does anybody has a suggestion for what to do now..?
thanks in advance

You can try and resurface the flywheel and sand down the clutch to get rid of the glaze.

That picture is a generic photo, the Spec clutch kits, nor the Exedy hyper single comes with a TOB/Slave. They are about $60-70 from a local dealer if yours needs replacing. There is not a "Performance" TOB/Slave...
