Emailed Emilio about proper break in procedure for the clutch sets he sells. Laughed a bit at the response.

And I'm being teased while I'm at work, it's kinda killing me slowly.

I remember that excitement of waiting for parts! I'm in the same boat now except I'm waiting for a whole car!

You're the first to use it, I used a t25 with the intention to run ALLOFIT with that turbo. You will be the ultimate test to see how much this baby can push out
