Default zc losing power?

anyone had this problem or know what it could be, every single day my zc is losing more and more power, its not alot but its enough for me to get pissed, i cant chirp tires no matter how hard i try, and it screams as though its going fast, but its not, could it be my tranny or my clutch? or something else?

When did you last clean or replace your air filter?

If you hit a given RPM and each time your RPMs fly to redline and you dont go any faster then your clutch is gone.

ya sounds like a clutch, i've gone threw 3 of em, blew one just this weekend, I could of been crusing at 50mph in 5 gear, then put it to the floor and my rpms would shoot to redline but the car wouldnt even accelerate at all.

Do u know how old ur clutch is? did u ever put a clutch in when u did ur swap? if not it prolly time for a new one, U can buy an exedy clutch of ebay for $120 shipped, And they grab real nice
