I had my stock GSR clutch boosted for about 40,000 miles. By the end the thing was completely shot but it did still make it in the 12's before I took it out. I bought a stage 4, put about 2 miles on it than had to sell the car

my stock clutch with god knows how many km's on it lasted longer than my motor, which gave out after like, 1000-3000km (I don't know how long I drove it for), but it did slip often in 4th and 5th gear.

Mine too. If you want to drive it hard and have fun, it will probably slip pretty quick. If you want to just drive it everyday, with regular low rev shifting, it will last a lifetime.

Mine went out in about 5 trips @10psi.

WE just did a b20 turbo with a .50.70 trim turbo its massive and only turning 2psi right now on the stock spring in the wastegate but any how we took it out tonight to tune it up better and the clutch is almost gone already. i give it a week and we'll have destroyed it. whats a good aftermarket to replace it with hoping to run 300+ whp down the road so why not go ahead and get a clutch to hold it!
