Well guess what, it slipped.
I installed it in April and it held for a while.
No track launches, street only.
The other night I rebuilt my TNT solenoids and heated a new 15lbs. bottle.
I hit it on a 3rd gear roll and goodbye.
Phuc am I tired of changing clutches.
I love driving a stick but it looks like I'll be going Auto soon.
I'm tired of the constant failures.

I have a SPEC 2 and its great. Chatters a little but its not that noticeable. Ive had it for about 3500 miles and no problems. Ive only got one 1/4 mile run on it but ive beat the hell out of it on the street. (doughnuts, burnouts 
) The only SPEC clutches that i really hear about crapping out are the SPEC 3s.

Textralia has definately hit a gold mine with their set ups. Only wish I had tried them sooner...After a few break in miles I'll let eveyone know just how good it actually is...couldn't be happier!

Unbelievable how the clutch pedal feels and the engagement is perfect! And this is the dual disc I can imagine what their single disc feels like.

So my spec 3 just lost a spring, which in turn destroyed the pressure plate and flywheel. I replaced it with stock ls2 flywheel and a Centerforce Dual Friction clutch, hopefully i wont have any problems. Car has 369hp to the wheels on a 12bolt Eaton Posi with 4.30 gears.
