In all honesty, i would not expect the manufacture to do much. i know this from expierence.

But i feel your pain. I have been there twice in the last year, its no fun to deal it. Please do let us know what happens!! Good luck!!

My car, sold the STi to buy something that had a little more potential in a straight line. Needed more HP's due to the fact that I don't have a road course anywhere near me. Then this happens like the 3rd time I drive it.

edit: PM away my friend

I've had two friends have Carbonetics triple failures. Or actually I mean explosions! What a POS clutch. Here are some pics I posted of one of the failures. This friend had chunks of the bellhousing punch into the intake and destroy his turbo!

And of course, when my buddy called Carbonetic's, they act like they've never, ever heard of anything like it before.
