  • Is my clutch slipping ?

    Evenin' everyone,

    After getting a power upgrade from MRC last Friday, I’ve noticed that sometimes ( once out of five times more or less ), only when at full throttle, and only if the windows are down, I’ll get a whiff for 2-3 seconds of a smell that smells like clutch lining burning but my clutch isn’t slipping… Or at least it doesn’t seem to be slipping since the acceleration is smooth and strong...

    Theoretically, I'm running 400hp and 400lb/ft ( 500 Nm ).

    Doug is a bit clueless why this is happening as he says the ABY clutch system can hold much more power than what I'm running...

    Any help available ?

    Thanx everyone !

    A good clutch should be able to take the torque you're producing, however, do you know if your unit is 100%? If it smells like clutch it will be!
