i woudnt even bother putting it on until you had mods to justify an upgrade. The stock one is fine if driven correctly

the twin disc I got is rated to 550 FT lbs. and that is ALOT really. FOG only made 512ft lbs on a 2.3L with 624HP so you do the math it should hold

holding is one thing, holding over a period of 2 years... that's a different story, that's why i was asking. just for ****s sake lets say i get my evo w/ 400whp right off the rip... and i run that for 2 years, would that clutch hold up?

you f all people know what I mean.

The thing I was getting at is he wants a HP range where your car is. and your cars TQ is not higher than the capacity of the clutch so I was just making that a point

we all know I wish my ccar was making that power
