So I was wondering when I get a turbo kit will my stock clutch be able to handle it for awhile. How much HP's can they handle until they start slipping real bad?
if your gonna be boosting more than 5-6psi, i advs you get an upgrade, mine died at 4psi
freaking auto civic tranny cant even handle its stock HP!!!!!!!!!! i hate my tranny.
I remember seeing on here that they are rated to about 200 ft/lbs give or take 15 ftlbs before it starts slipping. Im running 75 shot nitrous with no slippage yet and Ive seen dyno's of the 75 shot civics with about 200 ft/lbs.
my stock clutch lasted for 40k miles then 5 bottle fills of 80 shot nitrous, then turbo at 8psi for about 5-10k miles then i finally swapped the tranny with a new tranny and clutch all together.
Just upgrade to exedy organic and get the act streetlite flywheel while your at it.
man you guys are lucky. i spun my clutch with no boost and no spray.
I have 61,000 miles on my car.....20,000 of them boosted at 8-10 psi. All on stock clutch.
