When your clutch slips, does it smell?
Well I've never owned a turbo Honda before and my all motor build was never this fast, plus I had drag radials on that set up.
Well now I'm boosted with street tires, I'm expecting I make about 280-300whp (street tuned), but I can't tell if my clutch is slipping or if my tires are spinning.
If I launch, I will get obvious wheels spin in first and second but in 3rd if I keep the gas pinned down I will just bounce the hell out of the rev limiter.
In 4th at WOT it will pull hard and then about 7500 RPM it just shoots to the rev limiter (9k) and bounces the hell out of it.
I've never driven a FWD with this much power before and I can't tell if the clutch is slipping or if I'm just roasting my street tires.
I have that Honda EMS 6 puck clutch....also I don't have any smells either.

besides the fact that you said that it doesn't smell, it sounds like your burning your clutch.
if your only pushing 300butt-dyno-hp, you're no spinning your tires at the top of 4th, unless this is a 1000lb crx or something
Also, by the fact that you have an lsd, i furthur think it's your clutch.
In first and second it could be your tires too, as there isn't as much stress on the drivetrain as there is in higher gears, so the clutch might not be slipping yet.But as far as for third and fourth, it seems like your clutch.
