Default Stock clutch

I'm still running my stock b16 clutch at 9psi (putting down about 265hp) and it hasn't died yet (but I'm waiting for it to)...I was just curious how much power anyone has put to a stock b series clutch before it bit the dust...

I wasn't asking how long it would last...I'm curious how far anyone has pushed the stock clutch before it blew up. BTW it has about 10k miles on it...about 7k with motor swap only and just 3k turbo...

I can't tell you exact specifics on that car, I assume it's the way you treat it. Projekteg has killed his clutch.. I think it was gone before boost and now it's a slip machine. Do you drop the clutch and redline the car much?

Acually I'm a grampa driver until someone talks ----...then it's ***** to the wall. (ya know...the whole sleeper thing)Unforunitely I don't seem to get lucky and find a victom very often...I'm sure it will die soon...it was just more of a cuious question anyway. Besides I work for a clutch company and I'll get the PHAT hookup, I'm just lazy and I don;t want to do it until I have to. :P
