Is this clutch much of an improvement over stock? If so would it be sufficient for 8psi?

It says 28% stronger than stock, which means it Might hold ~128 ft/lbs of torque which isn't much. You want something that will hold more like 220 ft/lbs. The ebay F1 clutches would be better than that one. That is basically a stock replacement.

 

My stock clutch is holding 9psi (for now), however you will want more than that.

 

i am running 8psi with a 13g on that same exact clutch. just replaced the TOB with better one and you will be fine. clutch grabs hard

 

if anything it's an OEM equivalent PP and a good disc.


from the way they describe it, im sure its a rebranded clutchnet kit, just like the F1 stage III kits.

 

Is the F1 cheaper than the clutchnet? I am need of a new clutch, my current one slips bad, thanks to my brother learning how to drive stick on the car.

 

$3 yes.

The stage 3 is a ok clutch for 230 or so whp if you want more then shop for a bettre PP.

 

Will most of you install the clutch yourself? or have a local shop do it?

 

ourselves. Were DIY cheapos

Stuff like this keeps me away from shops.

 

Clutch jobs on miatas are about as easy as it gets. Buy that Miata projects book and it will save you some hassle.
