Proper clutch break in steps

[customgst]

Ok so i have an xtd stage 3 clutch, its a 6 puck style. Now my question is what are the proper steps to break it in. i know at least 500 miles of stop and go and no hard take offs, i.e. dumping the clutch, or full redline boosting... what i want to know is, is it ok to down shift? and what other tricks are there to help break it in? been searching but not getting good info. saturday i will be putting in redline mt 90 in it...i have 3 bottles do i need all three or no? thank you for the help

you will need just about all 3. take the 17mm out of the front of the case and pump in fluid until it starts pushing back out. make sure you jack car evenly on both sides or you will not get a correctly fill. once the fluid starts to come out, put the bolt in, let the car warm up and turn off. pop the bolt back out and if fluid comes out, your good, if not add more. as far as a break in process , anywhere from 350 to 500 is good. stop and go is good, downshifts are good after about 50 miles dont really start them until highway driving. while on highway downshift to 4th, ride it out for a few minutes and then back to 5th. repeat over again for about 50 miles . then downshift all you want. never had an issue this way and never had slipping

It all depends on the friction material used on the clutch disc. You say its a 6 puck disc but that tells us nothing. All of the stage 3 6 puck disc from xtd I have seen use a ceramic material on the disc which requires NO special break in. Biggest thing is to make sure the clutch is disengaging fully when released but other than that you can beat on it right off the bat.
