If you don't drive the car like you hate it, the stock clutch is good for more..

Default :-) I just wasn't sure what it would handle with 5 - 6k dumps...

just kidding. ;-)

I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't at it's limit with the stock torque. I thought that maybe pushing an extra 60 ft.-lb. of torque may be past it's limit. At what power point do you guys look at a higher stage clutch?

Default REVO gave me an extra 77 ftlb tq IIRC...

That was almost 20k ago, and I drive the pants off of it. No clutch problems here (/knocks on wood repeatedly/).

Default I'm from Madison, Ga (Morgan County).

Madison is on 441 about 30 miles south of Athens. I Moved to Charleston, SC in '97 and have been here ever since. All of my family is still in Georgia, and I get up to about 3 Dawgs games a year. How are things in Barrow County? Any other TTers up there?

Yeah, stock is fine for even APR Stage 3.

Default I personally wouldn't run APR Stage III with a stock clutch at all

while it may work - if you abuse it in anyway - it's gonna slip. Hell I can get mine to slip with GIAC and 100 octane :-)
