Well purchased my car back in '08 its a 2005 WW Evo 8 MR with 5 speeds at first i thought that i was a 5 speed trany but later found out (thanks to members here) that it was a 6 speed trany but it only has 5 speeds i have replase the clutch 2 time but both times i have purchased the clutch for a 5 speed trany could this be why it burns out quickly? or what other problems can it cause if any?

As for the clutch, I believe both 5 and 6 speed tranny uses identical specs.

As far as flywheel goes, not sure.

Its all the same, as far as the clutch going fast who installed it and was it adjusted properly. How you drive also helps in clutch longevity

All the specs are the same. Might want to adjust your driving style.
