its a wet kit w/no fuel system mods, @ 75shot is a start and from there u have to advance the spark to a higher shot.

clutch

Picking a clutch is a tricky thing. decide what you want to do with your car and go from there. do you want to race it? go here
Fidanza Videos

go to the video tab and to page 2 on the videos 4th video down ( PRI 2006 StreetFire Interview) and watch it. Very informative. Now Having said that. I chose the Kevlar clutch and you can see by my avitar I just pulled my tranny this week and here is a pic of the clutch after 4000km. Not good but I am hard on the car and launch at 4300 RPM at the track. I am now ready to put in the ceramic clutch. Yippeee!!

New clutch has arrived!

good Luck
Rob
