Default Any new turbo guys still using stock clutch?

I'm trying to figure out if I can hold off on buying a clutch for a couple of months? I'm not talking about racing either, just driving normal

Of course, they don't know how you drive and I do. You're going to have to get that Pb footed replaced.

flamenco-T actually blew up his motor before his clutch. i think he went 10-11k on the motor boosted to 256hp. then he put another 4k on the blown motor w/ the same clutch. it slipped but it held up so u can hold off buying the clutch just dont try too much racing.
