Default lost of power?

ok, got a 93 civic hb/ b18c1. my clutch went about a week ago so i replaced it and everything went well, now i can barely break the tires loose going into 2nd,(i know tire spin is loss of energy) but i was breaking them lose before i replaced the clutch when using street tires so i cant figure out what is going on. it doesnt seem to be slipping at all and i still pull farely hard but i cant figure this out. any ideas? oh yeah its a stock clutch to stock clutch swap

when i do clutch jobs tell them to do normal driving for about the first 100-150 to let the clutch seat to the flywheel, i have seen no problems......

wut kinda clutch system did you buy? some cheap brand? and did you replace both disk & pressure plate?

Sometimes a lame pressure plate won't grab as good as an OEM or dual-diaphram pressure plate.
