Message I haven't had any slippage issues. I just turned the boost up to 15, but I haven't had that going for very long. Z1 does say that clutch is good for what OEM turbos can handle - I'm not going beyond that anytime soon.

Actually, at the moment, I have M1 10W-30 full synthetic in the car - no 40 on the shelf at the store at the time. I have no idea if the PO ran full synthetic. I do have an oil leak - it leaves about a quarter-half dollar sized spot on the carbboard I keep under the car overnight ;). I ruled out the rear main (which is what I thought it was) when I did the clutch and PVC connections when I did the valve covers. Current suspicion is the oil pan seal and maybe the VTC solenoids (which I may have caused when I did the valve covers). Either way, it's mild enough that I don't have an immediate concern. I figure I'll do an engine pull possibly next year, if not the year after, barring any surprises, of course.
