Very fresh XTD 12lb Flywheel (used for very very short time, still can see machine marks from manufacture) It was cleaned prior to install and no oily hands touched it.
Stage III 6-puck Ceramic Action Clutch, supposedly good to 500rwhp
2800lb Pressure Plate (new with clutch)
I'm having issues with the clutch slipping when rolling into the throttle heavy. Especially in 3rd, 4th, & 5th. Anytime past about 3700 rpm (and around 4.5 to 5lbs boost) when heavy sudden application of throttle the clutch slips, till about 5000 to 5500 and then grabs again. Sharp acceleration or smooth quick roll-in of the throttle causes this.
A slow gradual application of throttle will let the clutch still hold.
I've already adjusted the clutch pedal as recommended by the vendor. Pedal was fine where it was with its' stock adjustment, however I gave myself a bit more leeway and made sure there wasn't any preload on the clutch master cylinder.
I installed the clutch, PP, Flywheel, all at the same time with my fresh motor. The break-in period for my motor was greater than that of the clutch. I didn't crack past about 2/3 throttle till about 900 to 950 miles on the engine & drivetrain.
Trying to figure out why a brand new setup is slipping. Once I get this straightened out I can get it tuned. Clutch holds fine to normal and daily driving requirements, just when needing to very hard accelerate it'll slip.
Only two things I can think of are:
1) the PP to Flywheel bolts (which were torqued down may have backed off)
2) the flywheel, though used may not have enough thickness and may be under-spec for friction surface thickness.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
