No, but there are the possibilitys of heat and cracking. So which clutch is best to hold a nls and the power output. A 6 puck that's worth it and the money.. I have worked with a southbend 8 puck.. and it did not last long to a lnf with just a tune and a few mods.. and I also did a lsj full bolt ons and a southbend 8puck kevlar and it wasn't holding his power. Point of me telling you this is order a clutch rated to your power.
Ky clutch has the best materials and have tested out all pressure plates and friction discs to make sure clamping force is where it is supposed to be on every single clutch they sale. And better yet, you don't need a adjustable clutch rod for engagement depending on clutch you order.

Man, totally agree with chevycobaltss3. what bothers me is this hobby, it appears to me people are scared to wrench. you beat on it, shes gonna wear out clutches are made of friction material. NLS kills clutchs kills trans, axles, hubs, the list goes on. if you dont like the catch with NLS then simply do not use it. nobody told you to race that S4..lol. now say you reinforce every aspect of your driveline and still shatter that "bulletproof" axle. i dont know about you guys i would be proud of saying i could do that.. take pride in making massive amounts of power from small underated powerplant and destroying it pieces. BECAUSE I CAN FIX IT..lol and to those that cannot, save your pennies change your driving habits or hobbies..

anybody ever made a SUCCESSFUL NLS with MASSIVE TORQUESTEER @ 80...i think i need to do more push ups..lol
