Easy! The chip raises the pressure in the clutches hydraulic system, causing it to wear out faster.

'Cheap' is a relitive term. Compared to a new engine, a clutch is pretty damn cheap.

Hahah.. The clutch will be fine unless its already on its way out. I remember when I first got chipped, it was such a great feeling. Congrats.

damn I didn't know that clutch would be an issue after chipping... what is normally the cost to have a clutch replaced (including all parts and labor)?
