Default Monster Clutch 3.5 slipping bad!

I put my car on the dyno last week and the 3.5 monster started to slip at mid range rpm then grab. The car made 603 hp 527trq through a m6 tuned by Jeremy Formato.

Here is a link.. You can hear it at the beginning of 4th gear pull.

Now today the clutch is slipping everywhere...1st, 2nd, 3rd..ect. I've donne some research on google and heard the .5 monsters where a bad design. I tried looking them up(stage 3.5) and they don't exist anymore.

What to do??

The thing to do is communicate with the company that manufactures the product you're having issues with.

There are many, many things that cause clutches to slip, it may or may not be the clutches fault. Making this post really isn't going to get anything done, calling us or emailing us is what you need to do.

Also, you can hear some hesitation on the dyno pull, a slipping clutch would hit the limiter at that power level.

Again, communication, call us and we'll go over a few things.
