Default stock clutch on a 99si w/55k miles

i'm installing a turbo on my si w/55k miles. i never have abused the clutch & i knew how to drive manual before i got the car & i'm the original owner & no one else drives the car. how will it perform running 7 psi of boost? will it slip? i'm installing a hmt on the 16th & i'm just wondering.
thanks

It will slip..after that it will burn up quickly.
clutch upgrade is a must.

Stock clutch + boost= you tearing the tranny out to replace the clutch with an aftermarket one.
