It depends on your driving habits and how many miles you currently have on your clutch. My stock clutch went out around 68k after a couple burnouts and hard launches, I had an Apex GT exhaust, PFC and Power Intake. Probably had around 245 rwhp with that set up. Just dont drag race too much and it should hold up to near 300 rwhp

I guess I have to change the clutch soon after I put all of my mods. It's completely stock now and I have the following parts to be installed: M2 Large IC
M2 Downpipe w/themo-tec wrap
RE-intake
Greddy TR-Evolution Full Race exhaust 95mm i.d.
Greddy Boost silver gauge
Greddy Temp silver gauge
Greddy intake elbow
Greddy Profec-B
Greddy turbo timer
G-Force ecu (soon to be AEM EMS, w/1300cc injectors, wide band O2)
N-tech BMK
Magnecor 10mm wires
NGK spark plugs
RP triple race pulley
Fluidyne radiator
Evans NPG+ coolant
RP Aluminum AST
Nippodenso high flow fuel pump
ACPT carbon fiber drive shaft,
4.30 ring & pinion
KAAZ LSD,etc...

I started to buy all these parts last year around September and it's going to get installed this weekend and I doubt it'll take a few days to be done. I think these parts is capable of 300+rwhp. What you guys think? Thanks.

BlackR1,

All the parts I listed are not yet installed except for the RE-intake.

alwan16,

I know, I can't wait when it's done. I'll also going to post some pictures.

If the clutch slipped after the parts are all in, then it's time to get a new clutch/flywheel package. The RPS kit looks good. Any suggestions? Thanks.
