i dont think ur clutch would effect anything when ur alrdy at 7k rpm. i matters when u launch and shift. i hope ur increasin speed at 7k cuz ur redline is at 8k and the fuel cut off should stop u from increasin speed... but if ur at 7k and not goin anywhere then somethings wrong

Is your clutch slipping? As in... Increase in RPM but no (or very little) change in speed?

If your going to get a new clutch it's always better to get a performance clutch than a stock one. Try an act street/strip clutch.

Its your clutch.....Didn't you ask this question before already?! If not, then nevermind.
If you could get aftermarket high performance clutch instead of the stock ones then go for it.....

Are you making a lot of power (over stock)? If you're not, stick with a stock clutch. Well, at least that's what I'd do, it's up to you though.

Even if you don't have major mods it's good to get a performance clutch because you will still get more power out of your stock clutch.
