micky boy Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Yeah mate the standard should be fine, however if you are going to go up in power in the future then your best be would be to put an uprated cluch in why the box is off Quote Link to post Share on other sites

durmz Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 just a case of reduced life I would have thought, im running an excedy replacement standard spec clutch, and have recently upped to around 170 bhp...he hopes...but I dont expect it to last ages and ages. but it will certainly stand upto it for a while Quote Link to post Share on other sites
