I ran the stock clutch to 535rwhp and it was usable, but not able to take much abuse. Powershifting is not able to hold. At the track, I could run once and then had to let it cool an hour, to make another run. Otherwise it would start to slip, and sometimes the pedal didn't return from the foor right away!
