Message	And I told everyone yesterday that the RPS MAX clutch is a stiff bitch.. Like a Schwarzenegger leg press..... well, not 'literally' as some people took it, but it is 65% stiffer than stock.. You may want to have a shim machined that will change the angle of the slave cylinder rod to that it is parallel to the bore of the slave cylinder when the clutch pedal is fully depressed. The cylinder will last much longer that way... : I know its not the cleanest engine bay, YET! I am starting on the detail process and I didnt have time to go by the shop to detail the engine bay. I pulled the engine cause I had a seized passenger turbo. So I replaced them with JWT sport 500 and a RPS MAX street clutch. Will the engine was out I told my mechanic to polish the plenum, since he owns a polish shop too. I will let you guys know how the sport 500s feel after my 500 clutch break in. This clutch sure is stiff! Sorry the pictures are not that great. Next I will polish the hard pipes. : : [ ashleypowers.com ] [ agpowers@bellsouth.net ] When pigs dance, you better get it on video...
