Thumbs up first time driving car with spec 3i, moser, and 160 stat

I just got finished installing these-and new water pump and BMR and torque arm.- I quess with the 3.73s and the aluminum flywheel, i can tell the car is faster already, a lot more bottom end and midrange. Havent really got into boost yet, maybe a pound, but i can its gonna be pretty sick. Also ZERO chatter with this clutch so far I would def. recommend it. It took about 10 min. to get used to and its so easy to get it not to chatter unlike what a lot of people say. I did stall once but that was cause its like a light switch- but still- not as bad as i thought it was gonna be.

Who needs slippable.....9", 4.56 gears, spool, 28" ET drags, 6500 RPM, release clutch......

As streetable as i have heard the clutch is, i would bet you can slip it when necessary.

ya actually it is a little little bit. Its almost like stock but ive learned to just let the clutch out a little faster. Youll like it. Did you get the i option- cause ive heard that this helps with less chatter. I dont know what a normal stage 3 feels like but the 3i I cant complain. Also i didnt put the shim in. ive heard different things about it, but i got the new flywheel and it seems to be perfect so far.
