Nice build! Someday, I need to put together a build thread. N/A since 11/12! We'll see you at FT86 Day.

I bought this car with the full intentions of adding some sort of forced induction. And I had been keeping my eyes on Cosworth before I got the car. I was hoping they'd do a turbo but didn't. Either way, I was happy. I was NA for... 8 months roughly before going supercharged haha. Can't wait to see you at 86 day!

Do you mind sharing you numbers? Buddy was very interested in what that kit is making

Well I haven't dyno'd the car yet, but according to Cosworth the kit (with the full exhaust) makes 280 hp at the crank. Another guy here on the forums put his on a dyno and made around 250 whp.

About to order a clutch for my car and I can't seem to make up my damn mind!!!

I'm thinking either... Exedy Stage 1, South Bend Stage 2 Daily, or the ACT XT street clutch. ugh.

Does new clutch mean more power???

Bwahahhahaha I wish! Until cosworth releases something else no. But my car is making strange sounds and I'm almost certain it's my throwout baring. So... since the transmission has to come out to replace that, why not use that as an excuse to upgrade the clutch?!

[kuczynskika]

Well shoot hell yeah upgrade that clutch... Cuz that'll mean you have an excuse for more powaaaaa! Haha

Shop said it was the throwout bearing so I said, "Well, good thing I ordered that clutch last night."

Went with the Southbend Stage 2 "Daily" as it holds roughly the same torque as the Exedy Stage 2. And seems to have the fewest complaints. Everyone complains about the ACT or Exedy for whatever reason. Also tossed the new Velox clutch fork in too

Right on. Yeah I've thought about clutches for down the road and almost everyone seems to have a problem or complaint.

I have the squeaky clutch problem now, so I'll be looking at the throw out bearing and clutch fork eventually. I'm glad velox made a part that should help fix the problem. Lend us your impressions when installed!
