The stock clutch will not hold up, if have lanuch your car at all, has your trany been grinding at all, when then the clutch weres down it hard to get in gear.

Right on the money. The Lancer's clutch has a hard time holding the stock power level. Any mods on the car and it'll burn up rather quickly. Replace it and you'll be good to go.

I rebuild EVO trannies. I also have a nice twinplate clutch in stock if you need one.
