Turbo Clutch Installation

[baby99si]

I see, i said that though because either way its goign to blow up so why not just save yourself money. Know what i mean? I was being a smartass.

can you run a stock flywheel with turbo how do you change your flywheel to 12lbs?

 

[Handlebars]

you should run the stocker wtih a turbo. and you can lighten the stock fly, but they have a nasty tendacy to blow up. dont lighten the stock fly.

alright great..... i'm going to order the centerforce dual friction clutch next week..... my greddy evo exhaust is coming in any day now can't wait...

 

[edhgreatone]

i got quoted for $350 is that a good price ?

 

[SeanMc300]

for install and part? just part? just install?

 

[edhgreatone]

just for the install of the clutch

 

[SeanMc300]

i guess. shop around.

 

[edhgreatone]

well i would but half the places i call they cannot jack me up on the rack because my car is so low.... so this place has a drive up rack and its a decent price so most likely i'm going with them its actually car version 2..... its one of the best places around here in my area so here's the website if you guys want to see some nice cars they have:

ummmm places that cant jack your car are dumb....all places can. ive been to atleast 5 shops for vaious reasons and all can. just get a piece of wood as a ramp to place your car over the jack points. i dont know what ou are talking about when you say your car is too low.

 

[edhgreatone]

well tell them that not me i've taken my car to honda and this bare place to get alightment and they said that my car is too low and that can't get the jackstand underneath it

There is actually alot of people running stock clutches with the greddy turbo kit and not haveing any problems at all. So its not a must, but it is a good idea. If you dont belive me you can go to clubsi.com and you will see there are tons of people with stock clutches putting down good numbers. I have heard that leaving the stock flywheel is best for turbo. Any other has a better chance of brakeing. And if you are going to go for a lighter flywheel, there is no point in buying a new just machine your stock one to a lighter wieght.

but if you are gonna race it, chances are your gonna eat clutches any way. so an aftermarket flywheel with a removeable surface plate will make your clutch changes alot easier.

well i'm not going to be the one installing it... but i'm going to be push back on my clutch because i had to spend $160 for my damn exhaust... pisses me off

A lightened flywheel is not a smart thing to get when you have boost.

did i say lightened or aftermarket? should have been aftermarket.


and $160 on an exuast isnt bad. mine was 550 for a cat back and my buddys SRT was 1150 for a turbo back

check it out though

Why would you spend so much on exhaust?

 

[b16_delslow]

his is a full turbo back... up pipe down pipe test pipe and exuast. it gave him just under 30 more hp to the wheels. look at it from a power to cost perspectice and its well worth it. he has his S2 ordered. that will give him another 60 or so WHP. hes gonna be a scary beast (its a good thing he weighs 3000lbs

 

[baby99si]

Ahhh i see, thats so much i would just go to a muffler shop and have them custom make a downpipe and pipeing. But then agian im not a bling blinger.

greddy exhaust with greddy turbo sounds good together not to mention greddy gauges

 

[b16_delslow]

did you go to that link and listen to his? the 350z sounds really good too. the only car that they couldnt get the rice out of was the s2000
