Quick overview on the car-
2017 Civic Si
PRL Race maf cobra intake
Mishimoto intercooler kit with charge pipes
MAperformance downpipe/front pipe and cat back (street) exhaust
Hondata flashpro with TSP Stage 1 tune
Clutch Masters FX400 with lightweight flywheel, SS braided clutch line
Eibach lowering springs
TSW 19" rims
I have 400 miles on the FX400 now, of very easy (under 3K rpm 99% of the time) all city driving, stop and go. After becoming very impatient I called Clutch Masters themselves and asked if 500 miles was the true break in period, due to mixed reviews online I wanted an answer from the source. They said 200-300 miles. So I didn't just take it out and start dropping gears and going WOT, but I did start driving a little more aggressively and actually let some boost kick in. I love this clutch. It grabs hard but the engagement is not as bad as I thought. It's very driveable as a daily driver, which it is. Reverse has way more chatter than I'd like but I don't notice it with any of the other gears. I'm very happy with it, I just hope it lasts more than 15K miles. I will add an update after I put on another 100 miles or so of this type of driving to ease my way into very spirited driving or going WOT. Will be going E85 as soon as I can swing it without my Wife killing me lol.
