Ahh, lol. I should start reading more.

Me? Several factors, haha. I pretty much learned manual on this car, so it had some pretty bad slipping in the beginning. Also, I participate in drifting, and god did I clutch kick the car HARD. I also powershift through gears down the drag strip, since we have a soft-rev limit. Through all this abuse (28000 miles), I must have glazed the disc over.

That's why I called Joe, asked for a setup that could handle this abuse, plus a turbo kit, and didn't look back. (Or at my wallet. )
