Been driving it to work this week. Clutch has gotten a bit better in all situations BUT coming from dead stop.... It's basically impossible to come off line like a normal person from dead stop once the clutch warms up. reviews online say the clutch is great to drive, that proper break in is the key.... Already have 200 mile break in, and dead stop is just simply impossible.

If it stays like this after break in, I'm selling it, getting lesser clutch and turning boost down.....

Right now I have to start doing the launch procedure before the lights turn green because it will take some time just to get the car moving without stalling/launching forward like a rocket, and even taking time, you just end up launching forward like a mini rocket..... RIDICULOUSLY annoying.

That sucks bro. Sell it to @Frs300 cheap, haha. I don't understand why it would be like that unless the pressure plate is just way too stiff. I mean it has tons of surface area that should allow you to slip it since it has two full face discs with standard clutch type materials.

It baffles me... Last night I went to check reviews again to see if I missed something, and the general consensus among different car brands is that it IS way easier to drive than 6 puck/4 puck single disks....

I hold faith that it will get better with break in, but faith can only get you so far...

When its cold, first startup, itsa dream come true which makes sense since its ceramic. But as soon as it warms up, just forget it. I have driven my fair share of clutches, 6 puck, organic, ceramic, unsprung, full face etc... and I had NEVER ever found a clutch I could not take off the line civil, in one day of use....
