Default Clutch problems
Just bought a new 03 cobra convertable. Im hearing chatter in the box and have smelled burning at times wondering if its my clutch?
Also when I accelerate my rps go up but it almost feels like the tranny is slipping so my supercharger doesnt kick in or is that because of the clutch? Or is that a belt slipping?

PLEASE HELP

Def sounds like a clutch issue. If you didn't have the chatter or smell i wouldn't think belt slippage. If you hit the gas and the boost gauge went about halfway and there's this black dust on your SC pulley/idlers, then i would say belt slippage.

At the top right, you'll see the search button. click on that and when it comes up, you can do a member search. Type AMNick and it'll come up. He's the official sponsor for AM.

Sounds like you have clutch disc issues, either worn out or a foreign substance like grease or oil is making it slip!!
Opinions are like A**holes but I'd seriously consider the Fidanza 2.1 paired with their Aluminum Flywheel!
