Does anyone here suffer from clutch slip? it smells...

I mean, my '88 9kt is not super highly modified, and I can get the cluch to slip in 1st through 3rd gears (you know, when you "slip the clutch" to accelerate faster with turbos). The revs keep spinning up, even once the pedal is all the way out. Then you smell it. I had a new stock clutch put in about 7k miles ago, is there something wrong? (I really think my old clutch grabbed better, even though it was down to the rivets) I know they should be good to about 250hp, but my car doesn't make anywhere near that...
help!

- You may be closer to 250HP than you think. Dyno. nm, Taylor, Tue, 12 Nov 2002 20:06:58
