yes that would be fine....i have that same clutch on my d series with turbo kit.....in my opinion though if its not on your car yet i'd sell it and get act or something cause i think it sucks.....it holds pretty good but not that great.

throw that pos into a lake. and get an ACT. I had one on my y8. broke it in fine. it held for like a few days. took it to the track and it just slipped like NASTY. It was so bad after that, one day driving on the highway @ 80mph... i floored it and the clutch slipped and the car just went straight to redline. here is a vid of the clutch slipping on me at the track... and this was @ 6psi on my y8 (172whp/143tq):

Yeah i can vouche for that Center Force are not that good over priced and there customer service is ****.

I put a clutch in a 97 camaro and the finger on the pressure plate and we took it out sent it back to use the customer was without a car for 2 weeks for them to send it back and tell use the clutch was installed inproperly lol **** center force.

I have one in my garage that was on a ZC with a greddy kit non intercooled at 7psi and it was broken in non boosted for like 1,500km first time we started boosted the car the clutch would slip in 2nd gear on.


My .02 cents
