Im so freaking lost. Let me just start by saying that. I just got my turbo kit put on and im happy as hell. Now i need a clutch kit. I took my car to a shop in west palm beach called japtrix cause i heard nothing but great reviews about them and they have done about 5 tc that i know. Needless to say the install they did sucked and im fighting to get the repair money back from them. They also told me that i can keep my stock clutch for a while on the turbo setup i have. Well obvoiusly not since its slipping and i have only had my car for 2 weeks. Now im looking to get a new clutch. i found some links on ebay. anyone have any recommendations? Right now according to the tuning that japtrix did before i fixed all the f ups i had 240 wtrq. now that its fixed i dont know if that # went up or down. What stage clutch do i need? stage 2 or 3?

this is what i found so far.

I would NEVER buy a clutch off eBay. Remember, you get what you pay for. Go through a reputable dealer. If you don't, you'll end up spending even more money to replace this one sooner than you think. Replacing the clutch is a pretty involved install and it isn't something I would imagine you would want to do (or want to pay to have done) very often.

If you've got the tools for the install and want to try it yourself.. these will help you on install.

It's really not too hard to do, but of course you'll have to drop the transmission from the bottom of the car yourself.. and without the proper tools, it can be a bitch!

i got a shop down here who is sponsoring the club who will do the install for 100 as a favor in exchange for business. I just need to get the clutch.
