I need to change the clutch, and wanted some opinions on what to use.

Im using a standard turbo clutch now but its started to slip.

Would it be worth converting to the pre verto setup or keep with verto and just replace the clutch with new.

Its 106 bananas.

think most of us are using pre-verto. What spring are you using?

The stock 'turbo' verto clutch should be good for 25lb ft or so over stock... Try fitting the AP race/rally plate and see what it's like. Otherwise, it's a grey all the way!

Just wondering if a tuned 1293 T" turbo set up would be enough for a grey/orange verto setup or am i looking at a paddle clutch assembly? suppose it depends on the boost?
