So I was tuning my neighbors Turboed Maverick for him today at Sandlake when it broke the Primary Clutch bolt.
It is running 10lbs of boost and performs great with the Tune Monster managing the engine. What I need to know is what is the BEST fix for the Clutch Bolt. This is the Fourth clutch bolt i have broke in my time of tuning Maverick's.

1) Is there a better bolt than the BRP upgraded stud fix? If so who?
2) Will a QSC, CVTech, or STM Primary fix this problem?
3) Do I need to have the crank keyed? (Since the engine is making more torque)

Please share your turbo clutch setup/experience.
If you recommend an after market clutch, bolt, etc. please send me link or name and number as I would like to order ASAP.

//airdam sells upgraded bolts for the primary.

I would suggest a STM rage 8 clutch with STM secondary, //airdam can help you with that too. Be patient when trying to contact him. Its worth it in the end.

Is an aftermarket clutch different to the point it won't allow shaft to spin inside it which causes the bolt/stud to twist and break?

Yes.
STM Rage8 is a great set up for a turbo.

 

[ThGdThBdThUgly]

Yes.

Thanks...

yup the stock clutch is a 2 piece design which slips under load , turbo for sure will kill the stock clutch and belts,

stm has a rage 3,6,8 , 8 being there strongest for turbo cars, and there 1 piece design clutch wont slip under load

Ordered Rage 8 and Secondary from Adam.. Let's see if can hold up and not break a bolt.

Geez you have alot of paddle tire. With all of that you are asking for issues. Good luck, i dont think a STM setup will be enough. Too much grip not enough wheel spin.

Yeah he is most likely going to put his STU ribbed fronts back on...
