Question: Has anyone who installed a 5th Gen clutch in their 4th Gen dyno it to see what was the HP and Torque gain?

 

There really shouldnt be much of a gain..I believe the clutch is a little bit stronger to hold the 00' engine power....

Wow, you have no idea.


A clutch will never show any gains on a dyno EVER. A clutch does not provide horsepower in any way, shape, or form. You can loose power to the wheels if it is no longer functioning. Replacing a clutch that is destroyed with one that works might show a gain because you were loosing power from the old clutch; you are not gaining power from the new one.

A more aggressive clutch might show a very slight gain on the drag strip if you shift really hard, but at the expense of more drivetrain stress.

Either way this thread is useless. Replace your clutch if you are boosted or your old one goes out.

My advice, if you don't know, search the stickies or the forum. Most of the threads that have been posted pertains to information already in the stickies. It's been gathered and organized for the new comer's benefit. All you gotta do is take the time and read them first before posting. Yes don't take things harshly, just remember to search and read first.
