IC upgrade.. benefits and questions

Ok just curious what you guys thought when you upgraded.

I don't know whether or not this will result in me getting a new clutch? I'm tuned with intake so far...

so I guess just looking for benefits of the upgraded IC too

The only benefit on a stock turbo is reliability. That's the reason I switched. I did not see the ability to advance timing any further with the upgraded IC. Until you're pushing big turbo power, I don't think you really see any benefit other than a solid metal piece that won't leave you on the side of the road.
