Default TT aftermarket 964, 1991 carrera 4

Hi guys, I have an aftermarket TT putting just over 700 HP on the ground. After 3000 miles the clutch is slipping in all 5 gears, no fun anymore. Clutch pedal pressure is also a bear. Does anyone have replacement suggestions? Many thanks for your assistance! TJN

whose after-market system do you have? I would love to see pictures of the setup.

with that much power you will probably need http://www.hergesheimer.com/sachs_racing_clutch.html
Give turbokraft or protomotive a call and see what they use on their high hp machines.

I don't have an answer, but I loved the question! It sounds like, "I have 5 Playmates living at my house, and only 3 bedrooms. They leave their lingerie laying all around and walk around naked all the time. Keeping them all serviced wears me out, I can't even go to work. It's so annoying. What do I do?"

Can't help ya man, but it must be fun!

"You can't repair. When they wear out, you can only replace with high-performance aftermarket."

Colin, I have a Prototech system. They say they are now going to the "1000 HP setup". I am trying to do a little due diligence as 3000 miles on a new clutch setup sucks! Thanks for your response. TJN/Vettekiller
