my car launches good and rips first and second awesome, but when im on the highway in say 4th or 5th and start to dogg it and hit boost my clutch slips, but wats weird is i dont smell any clutch at all. is it my clutch or could it be my slave cylinder, pedal adjustment etc. ???? whos experienced this?
 
If you're feeling it slip in the higher gears (which is usually what happens first), you probably need a new clutch. You wouldn't notice it slipping as much or any at all in 1st or 2nd gear when the clutch first starts going bad. Most of the time you wouldn't be able to smell anything either.
 
I would try adjusting your clutch pedal. After my clutch install, all was good untill i got on the highway then it would slip like your seeing. After a few adjustments clutch hasnt sliped a bit.
 
my pedal has a spring like play from the top till half way down, then thats where all the clutch is at the bottom of the pedal. how can i find how the correct way to adjust this is. cmon now i wouldn think itd break loose all fours with my vicious lsd rear diff if it really needed a clutch. do you???
