i have a 99 civic si that seems to have lost an amazing amount of power
i did have a honda specialist take a look at it and he told me it needs a new clutch but im havin a hard time believing it
it does not slip at all but when i get into higher rpms i can hear something clunking around inside the engine bay
it seems like the car just doesnt want to go


but how could the clutch cause that??

 

you could have a broken spring in the clutch disc, will that cause a loss in power? mehhh i dunno about that.

do you have an CEL's?

 

ya thats what he told me he thinks happened to a spring and yes i have one for the catalytic converter but its been there for a bit cause i havent had to fix it

 

you need a clutch, that is what's making it hard to go into gear.

you need to replace your catalytic converter, that's what's making it slow.

 

I have a test pipe I will sell you for $25 + shipping. LMK.

 

your cat is clogged just remove it or blow it out
