Default Clutch slipping n 5th and 6th gear when getting on the gas

Hey got a question, When i am in 5th or 6th gear on the free way and i gas it pretty hard my RPM will go up then down a little then up and down a little. I am assuming its the clutch that is slipping it has the OEM clutch. Figure i need to get this fixed asap just wondering if my guess is right and what parts would i need (clutch kit, or just flywheel?) please let me know of thoughts and part recomidations. This is not a track car i drive it around 70 miles a day.

Thanks.

Same thing started happening to me back in...like June. It's getting worse and worse. I have an ACT clutch kit sitting here waiting to go in.

You will probably need the whole kit. Our flywheels can't usually be resurfaced, and OEM ones are REALLY expensive.

If you are going to buy a new clutch, contact @eric@edgeautosport for a good deal. If you are not BT, you can go with the regular ACT clutch instead of the 6 puck. You also need to order 6 new OEM flywheel bolts.
