i brought this up in another thread but wanted more input...
Ok, an OEM LS/GSR clutch (same part #) is apparently made to handle at least 170bhp in a 2700 pound integra.
question is, does having this in a car weighing 700 lbs lighter (gutted hatch) allow the clutch to handle more HP??
anyone have experience with this? or, can anyone bust out some physics to explain it??
700lbs is an ASS LOAD of weight to a 142bhp motor (stock LS). this is obvious when you ride in an integra with one, then in a gutted hatch with one. Its gotta allow for more bhp without all that weight, right??
