I was a little apprehensive about getting it don't at first but now I can't get the smail off my face. I got a custom 8psi and 10psi tune. Just a question:Will the stock clutch handle the 225KW at the wheels produced by the 8psi tune? Im not really going to run the 10psi tune that often.Cheers

If you drive it hard you can say goodbye to it in the next couple of months

Im not really going to run the 10psi tune that often.CheersIf you have a T5 and treat the car with some mechanical sympathy you should be OK at 8 PSI.10 PSI on either T5/6 and drive it like you should, a new clutch is imminent regardless Do a search on the Mal Wood forums he has some great options available,this will answer most of you questions I am sure, plus he is a site sponsor so he will look after you
