I believe it's the stock clutch..... they're good for up to 350wtq iirc, maybe even a tad bit more.

As for installing an aftermarket clutch, i've read that it's almost a must do.

Its gotta go. They all fail eventually. When you add a stronger clutch you induce more hydraulic pressure in the clutch master cylinder when you press the pedal and the stock one will eventually give.

So I guess a tune for a flat 300 tq curve should put off this clutch/cmc replacement until later

Who makes CMC kits? I know of AMS but I would like to learn about less known about companies. Often find more innovative parts that way.

I am going to need to upgrade my clutch sooner than anticipated thanks to the next round of mods. Might as well do it right while the car is in the shop.

Do it. Just did a stage 3 Comp 2600 on mine and my clutch pedal stuck to the floor, finished it off immediately after installing.

I've installed both AMS and Magnus. Both seemed like quality products.
