Difference in clutch slipping in low rpms (1rpm - 3k rpm) vs high rpms (3k rpm and up)
Background
For over two years I can not seem to figure out what the problem with my car is. I did every maintenance and nothing seems to go right. I thought I was running lean, logs check out good, wide band shows consistent 14.5- 15.0 via idle or cruise. Thought car wasn't getting enough fuel, change filter and walbro 190. I thought my maf was bad. I replace and switch 3 different ones. I thought plugs, coils, wires were bad, change everything. Compression test checks out 185-190 ish across the board. Boost leaks none. Vacuum consistent 19- 17hg.
I had clutch slippage before that's why I bought all new clutch related parts. First time my clutch slip it was through out the rpm band.
Now I'm starting to suspect it's my clutch, that I never fixed it the first time. I change everything related from master, slave, ss line, act 2100, disc, pp, flywheel.
When the car is warm to operating temps and I apply gas about 50%. Boost will build but car will not move until like 3 secs until it catches and then it starts to pick up. The reason why I said difference in cltuch slippage IF ANY is Im not slipping in high rpms, say 3,4,5, gears but lower gears 1-2 and around 1000rpms to 3000 rpm.
