Clutch and Slave Cylinder
Hey guys I have a built turbo Miata making around 400whp and I constantly have to replace the Clutch Master and Slave Cylinder like I’m talking about every month or two. I don’t know if it my clutch causing that issue, I have a Flying Miata Happy Meal 2 Clutch. Is there any upgrades I can do to prevent this from happening?

Dumb question, but is there a better brand of part available? I worked at AutoZone for awhile. Those rebuilt parts like brake calipers, master cylinders, and so on are remanufactured usually in some sweatshop in China. Usually substandard o-rings and seals and not to spec clearances. I've never looked into it, but can you buy "performance" slave cylinders and master cylinders. I would think if your running a clutch that takes more force to engage, you would in turn need a hydraulic cylinder (s) that's bigger to aid in pushing in the clutch. Not to mention that can handle the increased pressure needed to push the load. Same principle applies with any hydraulic cylinder. It can only handle so much before either becomes overloaded and starts leaking past it's internal seals.
