you have to break in ANY new clutch. 500 miles of stop and go driving. EASY driving.

ACT says 200 - 300 on their street/strip clutch, and no break in for their 4 puck clutch...

What kind of rpm's are we talking? Do I just baby it and lightly feather it and shift at low rpms? Thanks.

All it means is that you should not do any power shifts, or drop clutch burn outs. Drive like a grandpa. I have the CM stage 1 and 9 lb flywheel, it is a nice combo. I have had it since last october, and I can still chirp third

500 miles of driving calmly. You CAN abuse the hell out of it......only if you feel like replacing it again in a few ks......
You have to give it time to mesh with the flywheel.
