        300 miles of around town driving.

        built a home depot boost controller, turned it up to 12psi...... clutch slips like a bastard.

        so much for KY clutch being awesome

          id also state that you were testing the waters for a reliable custom clutch solution for an ENTIRE community of mazda owners, then id proceed to ask them how they plan to fix it

                um did you guys stop to think that it may not be the clutch but maybe the hydrolics not properly engaging the clutch it would make no sence to tear someone a new asshole if your not ure the clutch is the problem

                  He noted there was no preload at rest, so there should be no there issues unless there is preload on the release bearing

                          I guess I better hold off buying my clutch disc from those guys!
                          '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
                          '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

                            I'm sure Jon will figure it out

                              jon is one of the most researching bastards i know. i doubt his flaming of a company is unwarranted. plus not having read the last few pages of up dates i spoke to him on IM. LOL

                                yeah brandon you can come have a peek yourself if you want, as far as i can tell the hydraulics are definitely working right. i'm pretty sure this guy sold me a freakin stock pressure plate.

                                jay i'll let you know what happens, whether they manage to fix it or i go with another company etc.
