clutch or transmission problem

Obviously people have less and less patients with the noobs on this site.. ( kerry ) any questions you have you can pm me and I will answer the best I can.. I would say replace the whole clutch setup, but first do a boost leak test.

There is plenty of good information on this forum but to get that information you just need to search. I would take off the trans and do a new clutch and TOB as well as resurface the flywheel. Also do a complete boost leak test and once all the leaks are sealed up let us know how it runs. If it still runs like shit we can further diagnose the issues from there.

yikez i wonder if he can manage a clutch job. . . if he hasnt done a boost leak test. . . drop his whole transmission . . .when giving advice we should try and emphasize having someone experienced do this or help do this job lol

Agreed. BUT so far he hasn't mentioned if he knows what a boost leak test is or not. This is assumed.

boost leak test has been done by me LOL no leaks anywhere checked my turbo and a few of my fin is bent. this was before the TOB was making noise. Did the boost leak test this past summer around end of july and found the bent fins then. Did the clutch myself 2 years ago, and I don't even beat on the clutch and drive the car that much. Thats why I highly think its the clutch slipping when I rethought about it and asked about the turbo. Sorry to sound so newbie about this but all your help is great thanks.
