Default What is Happening...........

I was at the dyno and we were tuning the car. Well once the car hits full boost and revs to about 4800rpm the clutch slips like crazy . Now this is a Mc leod single disc clutch that has about 1000 break in miles on it.. Is it a bad clutch or can this clutch not handle the power/torq? Or a bad installation? The car is a turbo car and does this at 5 psi. Did not even get a chance to turn the boost up

The clutch probly can't take the torque of the Turbo.
