Default clutch life....

ok so i got a b16a2 with some goodies, im gonna be boosting it and i curretly have an act stage 2 clutch with about 40-50% life left, how long would it last pushing around 7-8 psi ? with a good tune obviosly. im just wondering if its worth it to put a new clutch in before i boost it or just run this one to the ground.....

stage 2 eh? I don't believe ACT rates their clutches that way.

How are you estimating 40-50% life?

What disc are you using.. theres a few different options. Im guessing when you say stage 2 you mean 2600 or xtreme PP?

mhmm well im goin by how much life was left on the clutch on install and ive driven about 14,000 km on it, so about 30,000 total km, not driven hard at all so i estimate about 40-50% left by the kms and how it feels. and yes wen i say stage 2 i mean i have the sport pp and street solid disc, here is the number AI4-SPSD. im just wondering how long would it last under boost not driven to hard?

Depends on what tq your making and where your making it at. Just too many varibles come into play and not enough information. I dont think anyone can really narrow it down too much for you but imo drive it to the ground unless money aint a problem.
