Default oe clutch on turbo

i recently received my peakboost turbo kit and im pretty sure my car has a stock clutch (got it in october) anyways its a gsr and the clutch holds fine never slips and what not, but will it hold up with this kit? or will it just wear down really fast? ill be boostin with the wastgate no bc so the spring is at about 7lbs of boost.

I had an OEM Type R clutch and flywheel on my teg N/A, and i put the boost to it and it lasted about 4 solid months of constant everyday abuse, But even at a lowly 10psi it started to go. Id say if your in a position....upgrade that clutch. Even if its with a cheap XTD clutch youll be better off.

Might as well upgrade the clutch now, the stock clutch will not hold up and you will just end up replacing it down the road.
