is the clutch still under warranty? i would talk to clutchmasters about getting a replacement.

at the most it has 6000 miles. the clutch was broke in for a little of 1000 of it all motor taken very easy. never gave it full throttle, slamed gears etc. once i boosted i didnt just rump on it right away either just kind of took it easy at first.

I agree with above, call Clutchmasters. Stage 4 should be able to take hella more than what you putting into it. There is always a chance you got one with a defect in it though :shrug
What did it sound like when it cracked? :P

That's definately a manufacturing flaw. I'd be willing t bet that if you talked to CM directly and showed them those pictures, that they would be willing to either replace the clutch under warranty or cut you a sweet deal on a replacement.
Beyond that, all i can say is "Shit Happens."

That was diffental manufacture problom. There would be no way your car is making enough power to brake that clutch at 8psi broke in right or not somtihng eles happenend. I would call cm like dino said. theres guys on here putting down 300-350 with cm3's and no probloms.

Yeah that is a defect my friend. My CM stage 4 holds 19LBS of boost daily with no troubles at all. Even the best companies have defects sometimes it just happens, I bet if you call them you will get good results...

Spelling, grammar, lack of punctuation, general feeling of "WTF are you trying to say"...yeah. I'm guessing that.
