Doubtful in your case it is a tranny issue, most likely a clutch will let it hook up better and if you do install an LSD it will allow it to hook both tires. This is assuming you get a stage 2 or better clutch since most likely an OEM will not hold up to this abuse for very long.

 

he has an aftermarket stage 1...an lsd sounds good to hook pretty hard...but this helps if only one tire hooking...in our case none are hooking...so r u suggesting that its the clutch? what stage would be good for a all bolt on and reflashed a2 on dr's???

 

It is the clutch most assuredly. You have described a slipping clutch to a tee. A fresh clutch and pressure plate will help. What stage you run is up to you really, how much grab do you want from a clutch? I would think a basically stock setup like his would be more than fine with a street/strip clutch and pressure plate setup.

 

well were going to take a shot at it right now...he just came over..and i let him know about it...well its way cheaper than a tranny ..so were going to that first...i'll keep this thread updated when the install is done...thnx for ur help...

 

No prob


*damn I gotta quit being nice it's gonna ruin my reputation

 

lol...well i appreciate it..

 

so i finally replaced his clutch with an aftermarket high performance unit...and the car warms up the tires good and launches hard when that last amber goes off...= ] ...it actually was killing his time too!! he got .5 of a second with the new clutch..= ] ...thank u all!!!

 

This guy will be back when his friends aftermarket clutch ruins his thrust bearings causing a no start.

 

Quit bumping dead threads... especially when your motive is to take pot shots at other people.
