I have a UK spec, whipple supercharged GT with about 830bhp, recently added a small pulley a QA1 Carbon fibre drive shaft, mantic clutch and gforce axles. Every now and then when giving it some power in say 3d or 4th i will get a shuddering sensation, if i back off the shuddering continues but less so then slow right down it goes. The next time i get on the power it can be fine there seems to be no logic to it. I know i am not breaking traction and you can really feel the sensation of juddering, it almost puts you off going heavy on the gas pedal? Is this a sympton of the drive train set up? when cruising and taking it easy there is no NVH, and i can comfortably sit at 80 with no noise at all. Get on the gs, get to 80 in 3rd and like i say a shudder. Would welcome views as to what it might be. Checked all the obvious stuff such as wheel nuts etc, but this seems an odd one.

what rpm are you getting into the throttle? ive read people with mantic complain of a little shudder at lower rpm especially during the break in period. i have no experience with a mantic but just from reading that could be something.

Sounds like clutch slip or tranny. Mantic can handle your power if broken in and installed correctly. Mt82 is another question.
