Default how much power/torque will this clutch hold?

well i got a used exedy clutch with a flywheel i'll see if i can get the pictures later. But it's the exedy stage 1 clutch http://www.passwordjdm.com/pro...D=438
and i'm wondering what power level will it support on a boosted b16. I assume that i won't make any crazy torque, if possible i'd like to tune the car in the 280-300WHP range, but i have my doubts about the clutch.

Thanks!

I would get a Stage2 clutch for those HP goals.

Is there any chance to only change the disc that would support the power level?
Stage2 is a 3 puck i don't want that.

the stage 2 three puck is reall a very gentle clutch because it is a sprung hub. drives like stock but has a very strong bite. maybe you should reconsider

hmmm, although i sweared i'll never get a 3 puck style clutch i do realize that the catch is in the springs. I'd like more feedback on it if possible!
I think in this case i could just swap the discs, right?

go for the stage 2...i have it and love it. Even though its pretty grabby, it can be daily driven easily. One more thing, when you build a turbo car, be sure to leave yourself a little room to grow without changing the entire setup.
