LoL at Honey0Bucket.... guess we'll just have to install your non-ZPI clutch....

I got to do a good how-to pictorial thread for this.... Be a fun install, and a killer product..... 9.3 lbs.... that's just awesome! Add one more thing to the ever massing list of WDS's to do list.

No one you could buy it from..... ZPI exclusive product and made for your needs... Just adds one more piece of the performance puzzle in the ZPI portfolio!

That's up to them to say...

But, Like many others who have custom parts manufactured and customized for superior performance and outstanding weight reduction per their design needs... They may not wish to give away inside info... as we all know what people do with that.

Well, *I* wouldn't buy a clutch without knowing which outfit built it, but that's just me. After all, you're gonna be stuck with it an AWFUL long time.

Bah.... it's a figure of speech... Consider me the SL kung fu master

Back on topic to these nifty new additions to the ZPI portfolio please.

Also, all age jokes aside, calling it a "turbo" clutch seems silly since there's certain people on SL who are already smacking around the turbo'd folks with their SC'd tC's (not that I'd know anything about that).

No sense limiting yourself to one market by calling it a "Turbo Clutch".

Regardless, I'd like to know where this clutch is born. Keeping my eye on this thread.

I'm aware that you sell that clutch, but who actually makes this clutch?

If you put it together at your shop then what brand name of parts are you using?

ZPI is responsible for a lot of the design. The clutch at this time is a ZPIracing exclusive. The actual plant that makes this does not reveal their name or involvment in this or any other private label project.

I am sure at some point it will be leaked...but them and us ask that it is kept private.
