Do we share the same clutch as last generation? I would like to know the limits of the stock clutch before it needs to be upgraded. I'm not interested in hear that X shop made 900whp on the stock clutch because we all know it won't last long with that power. What's the upper limit of hp/tq before you should start thinking about a clutch

If you are racing it all the time it will fail with stock power levels. If you have a blower pushing 700rwhp but only drive it on the street the stock clutch will be fine.

700rwhp on a stock clutch even street driving will have a very limited lifespan after some spirited driving.
