wait a sec ... if your clutch is slipping, there are only two reasons that I can think of: 1) the clutch medium cannot physically hold or 2) your clutch pedal is not fully disengaging, as in it is set too high. A "spongy" pedal will only make disengaging of the clutch feel wierd and not effect how well it holds once engaged since the clutch is a spring that is unloaded when we press on the pedal.

have you ever adjusted the pedal? when i was trying to get my ACT to disengage more north i got it to a point where it would only slip in high boost after a short trip, then it would slip all the time in any boost. adjusted the pedal back and it never slipped again.

It might have been from when i clocked and reset my turbo the silicone could be blowing out once the boost gets past the oring. The first turbo i did this way, i used alot more silicone and no leaks on this one it might have been leaking 2 scooops and i went over the entire system even drove it with no brake booster hooked up and still got the same results. Then upon looking at the compressor my dad commented it looked like the silicone was getting blown out and sure enough it did not look normal so on goes the JB weld in the morning we shall see if it worked.
