What clutch

I have recently installed a clutch execedy stage 1 clutch in my car and it is slipping already. Can any one recomend a clutch that will hold up to the boost my car is making. The clutch i have is rated at 350hp/300tq so i need something a lil bigger. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

I'd do a search. But one question, did you break it in properly and have the flywheel resurfaced? It's even good to make sure it's all clean before you install.

An Exedy stage 1 is considered only a slight upgrade over the factory. I wouldn't expect it to hold much over 250ft/lbs of torque on a daily basis.

You might have a bad rear main seal, that's what happened to my 93. I had a new clutch put in, and about a month later every time the car would get warm, the clutch would slip. It turned out that my main seal was causing to to have a lubricated clutch disk, which as you can imagine, isn't a good thing. That is the last time I let anyone do a clutch job for me, but maybe it was just a coincidence

So as soon as you put it in you rode it hard?
If so, nice job!

My Exedy Stage 1 was put in while I was still NA and was a really good clutch but once I went boosted it began to slip shortly after.
