Haha sorry guys it's just great to see someone pushing the boundaries, finding the limits and then engineering solutions!

I promise to shut up and not give anyone anymore ideas.

Dealing with a clutch issue still. Car was back together yesterday headed for the dyno and some tuning and the clutch wasn't disengaging all of the way on the 1st plate. If it doesn't work with this next "fix" the Mantic is coming out and the stock clutch is going back in. Pretty over this clutch ordeal this is the 3rd time this thing has come out.

Stock clutch went back in and its on the dyno now getting tuned. Mantic is supposedly making more adjustments but I think I will wait for someone else to try it.

That's one way to alleviate any intake valve carbon build up concerns

I will get another round of updates for everyone here by tomorrow...

Let's just say our last dyno number started with a 14 that is on 70% ethanol, 18* timing.

Informational only... Not trying to say ANYTHING negative about your setup. I had to go with an RPS clutch because Mantic was having issues with their flywheel at the time. I'd highly recommend an RPS clutch. They're rock solid.

My only issue going to the RPS is that Ive sat in a C6 with an RPS triple it was stupid how hard the push was. My car sees a lot of traffic sometimes and I could not imaging being in bumper to bumper traffic and having to push that in and out for an hour.

I'll give you that! I have a dual disc Carbon RPS and admittedly it's a STROOOONG pedal compared to stock, but it's a compromise for a clutch that absolutely doesn't slip. Best of luck to you my friend, I hope you get it worked out asap.

Mantic triple over RPS triple ever day of the week. I understand that Mantic is working out some bugs for the C7 clutch, but the way they drive is awesome. I hate how RPS clutches drive.

I am still planning on putting the Mantic back in but I am done being the Guinea pig again. The clutch has been in and out of my car 4 times in the past month.... Made me miss some important events. I'm waiting for someone else now. My car has been pretty much used for all of the measurements for the new supposed fixes. I'm just baffled how this kit was released and was so far off.

Yup. same with my Tilton triple plate carbon and all tilton hydraulics. Rock solid pedal...badass grip. Compromise indeed but, it is what it is.
