I have been waiting ....

For something like this.....I must have the best stock EVO8 clutch around. I drive my car every day but do so with responsability meaning I never really get on it. And hardly let the turbo even spool up. I have had over 16+ launches at the track and have over 11K miles on my beautiful EVO. Oh and most of all I have Buschur racing stages 1-4 installed except the cams. Which will be installed the 12th of next month, and my new twin disc exedy. So see you all in OH. for the show.

Yeah, I'm on the high side of your target group, around 340whp (according to data log labs) Its more like 315-320 however, I have 22000miles on my clutch, still have the original brakes (to be changed in a week or two actually) and up until I bought new rims about 3 weeks ago, I had out 20k on my tires too..

18k miles on my stock clutch...somewhere between 310-330whp.

edit: Sorry forgot to say since day one I have had the 1-2 grind...and before my mods it began to have the 5th gear grind over 4500 rpms. Sooner or later I will get around to fixing that.

17k, ~330whp on a dynojet on my race gas map, and zero issues. Only 3 launches ever, though, which might account for the continued strength of the OE clutch.

21k Miles, 25 1/4 miles passes with 1.8 60' times, 4 track days, and 6 auto-x events. So far, so good. I have replaced the clutch line and removed the restrictor though. Somewhere right around 300 hp.

333whp,325tq w/stock clutch&tranny

it's a daily driver with 19k, still running stock clutch and tranny with no major issues (thank God), however, there is a thugging noise/vibrations observed when turning left or right at slow speed after changing trans fluid.

I had 15K on my stock clutch with BR stage one with no issues. When I replaced it, looked in very good condition.
