When my old engine had very poor compression and numerous other issues I had to really rev it high to get the car up hills from a stand still. Clutch lasted a year before it started slipping bad. I've had the current one (used friction disk disclaimer) for a few months and so far so good. You should put your car in your sig or CP so we know that its a turbo om616.

Upgrade options so far are not much or very expensive. You can use the friction disk from the Sprinter, but that doesn't help you with applying pressure to the disk. There is a stage2 kit that is like $800.
