Slipping Clutch/ Contamination Issue

What did they change? I know the disc went from 6 to 4 springs, but did they also do something to the PP or flywheel? Both my pressure plates have been used ones. One was the older part number and the one in it now is the newer part number. They had low miles, but were used none the less.
I'm really starting to think it's the flywheel being resurfaced too many times (i'm sure the previous owner had resurfaced it at least once) now there is not enough material? But I thought that pedal adjustment and shimming would make up for that?

I don't know the specifics of what they changed, but I know they changed. I personally had a dragging issue with my mismatched setup. Just make sure if you're running an ACT clutch setup, that you have matching components.

As did I. I would also recommend match components.

While mine was the 2900 (with 7lb Fidanza FW) rather than the 2600, the thing would never slip regardless of the abuse. I've done full disc with springs, sprung 6 puck, unsprung 6, and chewed though 3x 4-pucks at about the 450 TQ level and it always held and held.

I even had to launch in 5th gear all the way from South Minneapolis down to Prior Lake because the gearbox grenaded and that was the only gear left to choose. Still held without slipping!

Sucks you're having such shit luck with you setup.
