Default Need New Clutch...

The title says it all. I'm taking out my slipping (piece of sh*t) Clutchmaster. I need a better clutch because that clutch master started slipping after 500miles. People say ACT or EXcedy so I'm curious what the diff's are and the pros and cons. I'm runn'n i/h/e/jrsc. Thanks

Did you break it in correctly? Break in on CM stage 3+ is 1000 miles... Did you talk to CM?

not to hijack your thread, but can someone reccomend a good clutch for Mild NA + a 75 shot? This is daily driven and i want it to be streetable, yet i want to buy something beefy in case i end up rebuilding my motor.

Stage 5, did about 250miles, and its not 1000 CM says to do 500. I don't want to talk to CM cause My warranty is over and basically what it comes down to it is I gotta get a whole new clutch(buy a new clutcH). Basically Screw CM, I'm gonna get an ACT.
