Team Clutch for XP

I think you could achieve the same results for much less $$ by running a properly set up doo primary and secondary. Much of the problems with the XP clutching is from the primary. Changing ramps, weight , spring and helix will make a world of difference and for less than half of just the team secondary. I think the team is a great secondary but IMO not worth that kind of money for the improvement you may see. If you want to drop that kind of money there are other mods I would do first.
Clutching
What a bunch of bull shiiiiiiiiit i have 07 with clutching that is as closs as my1974 john deere spitfire and doo says they have a fix 5 trys and bull sssssssssssss.

Thanks guys for the opinions. One of the things I am trying to get away from is the heat the TRA's are known for. We just put the 09 setup on my sons XP. Seams to be much more consistant, lower heat, and the belts seam to be wearing better. Team has always been known for good set ups, but I think we'll just go with 09 setup for my 08 unless someone can convince me the Team or someone else is worth the $$$.
Just talked to the guy I sold my 06 159 800 Summit X. 3500 miles and not one blown belt. I did not change the belt in 1300 miles. He now changes the belt once a year - Just because.
My 08 163 XP has 1200km and I just changed the original belt - Just because.
I remember back with the 670's and into the ZX chassis when I could blow belts at will. I tried polaris primaries, cat secondaries and the team. I really liked the cat, but why give up reverse. I came to the conclustion, Sh!t in = Sh!t out. I didn't matter what primary or secondary I was using, if it wasn't properly set up it just wouldn't work.
The QRS and Paragon are very sensitive to small changes in helix angles and spring weights because they are so efficient. This is a main reason so many have yet to set them up properly. BRP is challenged with emissions and other restrictions that limit what they can provide.
The stock clutching can really be improved on. For me, I just can't justify $1500 to buy the Paragon and shaft when $260 buys a clutch kit that provides great performance!

the team setup that is available from HOLZ (not the same as the team one) is 100% worth the money. I have 09 clutching in an 08 right now and there is flat out no comparison. Acceleration, backshift and heat are dramaticly improved. The biggest one time improvement i have seen in a long time, I would not have beleived it until I had a chance to ride one, then I ordered the kit the next day, and I wasn't even thinking about spending any money on anything.

can you tell me what spring and helix they sent you. I bought team having trouble making backshift.
