Blew Out The Clutch Today
Being the Torque monster it is. 
Just driving down Couthhouse and BAM its gone. Limped the bitch home. I think I warped the flywheel. Today I just ordered myself a Spec Stage 3 Clutch to get ready for the turbo kit. Holds up to 500ft/lbs of torque. http://www.specclutch.com/products.html.

My friend has this clutch and he said it was fine Stage 3. The only people that blow these are you guy putting alot of power though them.

I've got a Spec Stage II and I love it so far. I've had it in for about 6 months and many trips down the 1320 and never had a problem with it. There are alot of people who hate Spec clutches though, and just as many who seem to have great luck with them. I did quite a bit of research before getting the Spec and I have yet to find a clutch everyone is on agreement about being great, just my .02

I had a spec clutch on my SR, running only 200lb tq and it began to slip around 3k miles. I bought a clutch from competition clutch 6puck stage 3. This should hold up great
