I've got a '91 DX Hatch with all the ac and PS ---- too, and it has the same exact problem. Haven't decided if boosting it is the solution though, considering I drive it about 100 miles a day sometimes in heavy traffic and shutting the car off and on a lot.

This is my first time posting a vid so i hope it works, Raced a lightly modded WRX with 2nd gear roll, 2nd we pulled pretty evenly with it, 3rd is when the clutch started to slip really badly on the 4 dr and that is when the WRX took off on us. You can hear matt letting off the gas trying to get the clutch to grab....

yeah the clutch is toast in the car, but atleast it kept up a bit.

and that was when i was on 7 lbs with a huge vac leak at the t body, now it is tuned for 10 lbs and runs pretty good.

we will try and get the better finished pics up soon.
