well I cruise Gratiot which is the Street where all the racers go for a fun night out.... anyways I had a slippin clutch but it wouldn't slipp in first for second just third and fouth. I pulled on a Prelude which was like a 97 or something when I had my vtec working and no slippin clutch. Anyways since it started to slip bad recently I replaced it with a Clutchmasters stage 2 clutch. I dropped my trans in 1 1/2 hours and put the new clutch in when it came. I took it out for a ride, lovely feeling when it doesn't slip... but it feels as if I lost a SH!T Loada acceleration. I got the clutch for a 90 Acura integra since the b16a came in it in a JDM Xsi. I mean I felt like I was slow but also I had no vtec but there still should have been a difference. I reached redline in no time with the other clutch and now that I have the new one I slowly reaches high r's. Is this common? I think I need to break the clutch in some more cuz the thrown out brearing and flywheel bearing are new and I only have 200 miles on it. has this happened to anyone else after a clutch? Damn its slow as hell. before it was VROOM~> REDLINE! now its VROOOOM~~~~~~~~~~~> REDLINE! GAY! Someone please fill me in Thanks.
